Sarajevo

Sarajevo is one of the most historically interesting cities in Europe. It is the place
where the Western & Eastern Roman Empire split; where the people of the Eastern Orthodox east, the Ottoman south and the Roman Catholic west, met, lived and warred. It has been both an example of historical turbulence and the clash of civilizations, as well as a beacon of hope for peace and tolerance through multi-cultural integration.

Today the city has physically recovered from most of the war damage caused by the Yugoslav Wars of the early nineties. Sarajevo is a cosmopolitan European capital with a unique Eastern twist that is a delight to visit. The people are very friendly, be they Bosniak, Serb, or Croat.

For over four hundred years, mosques, synagogues, Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches have been built and have stood side by side here.

Citizens of different nationalities and religious orientations live and work together, developing their city and their own style of togetherness regardless of conquerors and foreign rulers whose identity changed over and over again, fast or slowly, depending on the historical and geopolitical situations and the great-power interests.
