Sarajevo: Grand Walking Tour Bosnia-Herzegovina — #1

1/1

Overview of the tour in Sarajevo

The tour starts in front of the Tourist Information Center “Info Bosnia” at 02:00 PM. Sarajevo is a relatively young city founded in the middle of the 15th century, but what lacks in age it makes up for sure in interesting and turbulent history: A cosmopolitan city, that was in certain periods ahead of its time. Experience a combination of Oriental, European and Yugoslav influences, which creates uniqueness and beauty, seen nowhere else but in Sarajevo. This city embraced all different nationalities but unfortunately faced destruction at the end of the 20th century.

In this tour, you will be able to see Muslim, Catholic Christian, Orthodox Christian and Jewish architecture, that is just a few minutes away from each other. You will be able to hear Muslim calling for prayer and in the same time hear the sound of bells from nearby churches. You will be able to try some traditional dishes and see traditional crafts.

Also, learn about the assassination that triggered the First World War. Learn how Muslims and Jews protected each other through the different wars. Understand how a city that suffered so much, can be so pleasant. In these three hours try to feel the “Soul of Sarajevo”.
