Despite the shadow of war looming over these beautiful cities, I’m quite certain they will become an attractive tourist destination within a few years because of the splendor of the city centers, the mosques, the river that runs through them, and other monuments are simply awe-inspiring. The main street in downtown
The cuisine is fantastic, although I do not, however, recommend the cevapi – pita bread filled with toooons of greasy cheap sausages and onion – almost made me sick! The bureks are delicious - fried breaded potatoes, veal, spinach, or cheese rolled up like a taco, and sold by the kilogram. I’d also recommend the tasting (because maybe once is enough) of the Turkish coffee made in these metal basins at coffee shops and virtually all over Sarajevo, and its pretty strong yet beware of the grains left on the bottom – not so tasty. The bakeries are cheap and delicious with lots of variety…their dessert stuff is incredibly sweet yet mouthwatering! The only factor that mildly surprised us was transportation being so pricey and we certainly did not expect it, especially with buses and trains being so run-down. Hotels and youth hostels also seemed a bit overpriced.
