1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour #622 - Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina

1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour After Remission #622
 
- Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina
 
(The bridge is real - the Mostar Bridge is truly a star! With bright spring sunshine, the bridge is stunning, framing the buildings and mosques in the distance beautifully. And when the high-diver took his 70m jump into the 6C waters, the crowds cheered his bravery - but only after collecting his 25euro from them. Views from both sides of the bridge are lovely - the yellowish stone used to build the bridge is centuries old, once used to bring cattle over, but the bridge itself was rebuilt after being bombed during the recent Balkan War. Now it is a huge tourist attraction - see the vdo of that 70m jump, below)
