🇧🇦 Sarajevo | The Jerusalem of Europe

This is Sarajevo— A city half alive, half cemetery. Nearly every landmark here is tied to war: Walls scarred by bullet holes, streets marked with blood-red roses 🌹. From the warm sunshine of Croatia to the relentless rain here 🌧️, The sorrow of this city feels even deeper. The closer you get, the more you understand the preciousness of peace 🕊️. 📍 One-Day Itinerary: 1️⃣ Latin Bridge: The spark that ignited World War I. 2️⃣ Assassination Museum: Located next to the bridge, it details the events and consequences of the Archduke’s assassination (entry fee required). 3️⃣ Sacred Heart Cathedral — and the "Sarajevo Roses" nearby. 4️⃣ Eternal Flame: A memorial dedicated to those who perished in WWII, symbolizing hope and prayers for peace. 5️⃣ Yellow Fortress: Offers a panoramic view of the old city, where white tombstones and red-roofed houses stand side by side—a profoundly striking sight. 6️⃣ East-West Cultural Divide: Ferhadija Street in downtown Sarajevo is split into eastern and western sections. At its midpoint, the "Sarajevo Meeting of Cultures" line marks the stark contrast between European-style architecture to the west and Ottoman-inspired Islamic architecture to the east. #Sarajevo #SarajevoTravel #BosniaAndHerzegovina
