Mostar is considered the most beautiful and romantic city in the Balkans. And we really recommend spending a weekend here. Mostar combines stunning mountain views with medieval architecture. Everything around is reminiscent of knightly times. Walk around and enjoy the colorful streets of the quiet city.
We got to Mostar by high-speed train from the capital of Bosnia, Sarajevo. There are high-quality European trains, the cost there and back does not exceed $15 per person.

Sights
The famous Ottoman bridge in Mostar is a symbol of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The bridge that connected Christian and Muslim lands was completely destroyed and reconstructed after the war in the 90s. Now, for fun, the locals arrange diving with it and beg money from tourists. We also supported the jumpers and donated a pretty penny. They say the height is about 25 meters, and the river itself is one of the coldest in the world.
A view concrete bridge connecting the business center of the city with the railway.
If you walk from the railway station to the city center, this bridge will be the first point that will make you admire the views of the river and take your cameras out of your pockets.
Cafe with traditional Bosnian breakfasts and Bosnian coffee.
Be sure to reserve a place in this cafe. On one of the floors they have a veranda overlooking the bridge and mountains - ask to go there, you’ll be able to take pictures without unnecessary tourists.
A fascinating place surrounded by rocks and waterfalls with crystal turquoise water - just 15 minutes by taxi from Mostar. This place looks as magical in person as it does in the photos!
Cafe overlooking the monastery House of the Dervish
For us, this restaurant became a saving island at +35°. It is surrounded on all sides by small streams, so the air around is filled with the light and pleasant sound of water and the aroma of freshness.
