Sarajevo, capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, has a poetic landscape but beneath its beauty is the sad story from the past. The place is a compact city on the Miljacka River, surrounded by the Dinaric Alps. Its center has museums commemorating local history, including Sarajevo 1878–1918, which covers the 1914 assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, an event that sparked World War I. Landmarks of the old quarter, Baščaršija, include the Ottoman-era Gazi Husrev-bey Mosque.

1. Sightseeing Activities in Sarajevo- Situated at the center of Sarajevo, you can do your hop-on hop-off tour to enjoy the picturesque of place. Visiting these places and chatting with the locals makes a trip to BH a pretty unique experience among European destinations (https://city-sightseeing.com/en/143/sarajevo).

a. Latin Bridge and stand on the very spot where Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated on 28th June 1914, leading to the outbreak of World War I.

b. Tunnel of Hope with 800m long, hand-dug tunnel beneath the airport runway was the capital’s lifeline during the siege in the 1990s. But it’s not all about war… beyond the bullet holes and Sarajevo Roses is an architectural treasure-trove lurking in the shadows.

c. Vijećnica is made of stained-glass ceiling, multi-arched interior and octagonal basement, the iconic City Hall, housing the National Library, is one of Sarajevo’s most beautiful buildings from the Austro-Hungarian period.

d. There are more attractions that you can hop including Sebilj wooden fountain in Baščaršija Square, the Alija Izetbegović Museum which tells the history of Bosnia, marked by the struggle between good and evil, and the Yellow and White Fortresses (Žuta Tabija and Bijela Tabija), once part of the old Vratnik city walls.

e. Vidikovac viewpoint is showing the fantastic breathtaking panoramic views over the valley below and the streets of Sarajevo.

2. Cultural Tips- The people in Bosnia and Herzegovina are very hospitable, and it’s considered a nice gesture to accept food or drinks offered by locals. Coffee culture is very strong in this part of the Balkans, so this especially goes for taking a cup of traditional Bosnian coffee. You can also often be offered with a rakija, a fruit brandy which is very popular in Eastern Europe. Rakija is usually made of plums (šljivovica) or grapes (loza). It’s very strong, so if you don’t want to get drunk very quickly, don’t have too many of these. It is also common for locals to offer you a cheese, fruit or piece of cake.

When it comes to the language of communication with the foreigners, BH usually use English. In the cities you will easily find somebody to help you with something you don’t understand. If you are traveling in the countryside, it’s best to learn or even better, write down few words and phrases that will help you on your trip.

3. Restaurant and Street Foods- Typical meat dishes include primarily beef and lamb due to Islamic dietary laws, although the Bosnian Croats and Bosnian Serbs can consume pork. Some local specialties are ćevapi, burek, dolma, sarma, pilav (pilaf), gulaš (goulash), ajvar and a whole range of Eastern sweets.

At the City Center of Sarajevo, there are chain of restaurants at city walk featuring ultimate cultural experience of Balkans where one can taste Ottoman, Austro-Hungarian and Balkan flavors. There are many restaurants that you can choose from that offer different dining ottoman experience.

4. Night Life- As per the article of Inyouroocket.Com, a night out in Sarajevo comes no better than an elongated wander through the city’s bar scene, where you will find people drinking coffee, beers, brandies, cocktails, wine, juices…or just mineral water. Sarajevo is very see-and-be-seen, busy, and the city’s notoriously beautiful womenfolk dress accordingly. A handy rule-of-thumb is to assume that a waiter will find you almost as soon as you arrive in an establishment: do not order your drinks at the bar. Prices are almost the same everywhere, so think of paying about €2 for a large half-litre of beer, about €3-5 for a cocktail, and somewhere in between for wine. It’s well worth trying the local brandies, made from plums (slivovitz), grapes(rakiya), walnuts (orahovaca), cherries (visnavaca,) and apricots (kajsija).

5. International Activities- The Sarajevo Film Festival is the premier and largest film festival in Southeast Europe and is one of the largest film festivals in Europe. It is held every August and screening hundreds of films including short films from 60 countries. It was founded in Sarajevo in 1995 during the siege of Sarajevo in the Bosnian Independence War and brings international and local celebrities to Sarajevo every year.
