Sarajevo in short
Walk down one street in Sarajevo and the architecture changes from Ottoman to Austro-Hungarian mid-block — there is even a line in the pavement marking it.
The city carries its recent history openly, and understanding it is part of why people come. It is also cheap, welcoming and surrounded by hikeable mountains.

Why visit Sarajevo?
Baščaršija
The Ottoman bazaar quarter, with coppersmiths, mosques and the best coffee ritual in Europe.
History you can walk
The Latin Bridge, the Tunnel of Hope and the War Childhood Museum are all reachable on foot or by tram.
Mountains on three sides
The 1984 Olympic peaks are a short bus ride from the centre.
Things to do
Tunnel of Hope
The tunnel under the airport that kept the city supplied during the siege, now a museum.
Yellow Fortress at sunset
A free viewpoint above the old town where the whole city gathers for the evening call to prayer.
Trebević cable car
Up the mountain to the abandoned Olympic bobsleigh track, now covered in graffiti.
Bosnian coffee in Baščaršija
Served with a copper pot, a sugar cube and no hurry whatsoever.
