Mostar
Mostar offers the most accessible and enticing first taste of Bosnian culture. Ideally located a short drive from the Dalmatian Coast, this charming, manageably compact small city — with a scenic setting, beautiful Turkish-style architecture, a dynamic history, and an iconic bridge — feels like Bosnia with training wheels. And despite the scars of war, Mostar is still stunning, straddling the banks of the gorgeous Neretva River, with tributaries and waterfalls carving their way through the rocky landscape.
