Old Bazar " Mostar " — Local services in Mostar

The Old Bazaar of Mostar, represents a characteristic example of the architecture and, at the same time, of the daily life of Mostar, as seen in the vitality of the shops, in the little restaurants (where you can taste excellent traditional dishes) and in the crowded cafes which characterise the local atmosphere.

In the past, it was the pulsing heart of the business world in the whole of the region with more than 500 shops and antiquities, during the Ottoman era. Even with the changes due to the passing of time, this bazaar which has a pretty cobbled street that runs though it, has maintained its ancient outward appearance, characterised by its ever-present mosques and small inns.

This bazaar is one that starkly contrasts from others. It is vibrant and (of course) crowded, and has many interesting ornaments, souvenirs and whatnot for sale. One can get lost from weaving through crowds on the cobbled street, while at the same time admiring the beautiful scenery from the Old Bridge as well as the river. I am glad that I have arrived at this beautiful place that I had before, only noticed from the books and magazines. Great travels, excellent experiences,...

Best bazaar I've been to. Of course 90% is junk. Particularly watch out for the cloths, the 100% cashmere/cotton tags are visibly sewn in "aftermarket" 🤪. I even found one scarf where the "boss" forgot to rip off the original 100% viscose tag, and when I showed my friends and laughed at it the owner grabbed it out of my hands and still wanted to lie about it. Oh boy... One has to be retarded not to see that...

Stari grad Mostar – susret istorije, kulture i ljepote

Stari grad Mostar, smješten na obalama rijeke Neretve u južnom dijelu Bosne i Hercegovine, jedno je od najpoznatijih kulturno-istorijskih područja na Balkanu. Srce Starog grada čini čuveni Stari most, izgrađen u 16. vijeku tokom osmanske vladavine, koji je postao simbol povezivanja ljudi, kultura i vjera. Stari most, pod zaštitom UNESCO-a, remek-djelo je islamske arhitekture i inženjeringa, a njegova rekonstrukcija nakon rušenja u ratu 1993. godine predstavlja snažan simbol pomirenja i obnove. Danas je most neizostavna stanica svakog posjetioca, a tradicionalni skokovi s mosta u Neretvu privlače pažnju turista iz cijelog svijeta. Ulica Kujundžiluk, stara trgovačka ulica, očarava kaldrmom, rukotvorinama i malim radnjama koje podsjećaju na duh nekadašnjeg Orijenta. Brojni muzeji, galerije, džamije, crkve i kuće iz osmanskog i austrougarskog perioda dopunjuju bogato kulturno nasljeđe grada. Stari grad Mostar nije samo arhitektonski dragulj – to je živa tapiserija istorije, susret Istoka i Zapada, prošlosti i sadašnjosti. Njegova energija, boje, mirisi i zvuci ostavljaju dubok utisak na svakog...
