Flag of Bosnia and Herzegovina Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina
Wednesday, April 14, 2010

We arrive in Mostar around 7am to drizzle. As we begin to walk to the town centre the rain gets heavier. Fortunately umbrellas are only €1.50. We explore the Ottoman Quarter, avoiding the puddles forming in the cobble-stoned streets.
The view of the new Stari Most (Old Bridge) is magnificent. The arched bridge was destroyed by the Serbian army during the Bosnian War in 1993 and a reconstruction of the 16th century bridge was completed in 2004.
We finished our time in Mostar by eating some local cuisine - a burek, a coiled pastry iwth a filling of meat or spinach.
