Mostar Must-Sees: Unveiling Bosnia's Enchanting Bridge Town

Nestled alongside the Neretva River, Mostar⭐⭐, Bosnia and Herzegovina's fifth-largest city, thrums with a rich history. Its very name echoes the legacy of the bridge keepers (mostari) who once safeguarded the iconic Stari Most (Old Bridge) spanning the turquoise waters. 

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, this 16th-century Ottoman masterpiece is not only a testament to Islamic architectural brilliance in the Balkans, but also the beating heart of the city, attracting visitors with its exhilarating diving tradition and breathtaking beauty.
