DISPATCHES
Sarajevo’s Jewish Community // The Inevitable Degradation of Chemistry
The ups and downs of Sarajevo’s Jewish community, from fleeing persecution to, well, more persecution.
Kravice Waterfall // No Thinking, No Doing, Just Being (and Midget Cows)
Kravice Waterfalls is one of the most popular tourist spots in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and for good reason.
Knežina // Time Machines Exist
A few kilometres outside of Sokolac lies Knežina, a veritable time machine with a gorgeous mosque and darling monastery.
Bosanska Otoka // Meeting Džemaludin
It doesn’t come much more geeky than hanging out with family members of Džemaludin Čaušević in the hills above Bosanska Krupa.
Tuzla // A Delicious City of Salt
Tuzla is the City of Salt, and that isn’t just some fancy nickname based on stubbornness. The history of the most important foodstuff is alive and well here.
Nevesinje // Bells, Whistles, Sheep’s Bridge
A few short kilometres outside of Nevesinje, the Ovčiji Brod (Sheep’s Bridge) is one of BiH’s oldest stone bridges. Also, a proper darling.
Sarajevo // Bečka Kafana and Harbouring Hipsters
It might not be particularly representative of the city’s long and storied history, but there is an undeniable class to Sarajevo’s Bečka Kafana that really appeals. Also, hipsters.
Banja Luka // You Are More Than Welcome to Leave Us Alone
Banja Luka is home to a trappist monastery with a fascinating history, not to mention buckets of cheese. Sounds good, right? Just don’t think about visiting.
Jajce // Svemirko and Nikola Šop
What do a beloved poet and Bosnia’s best pub have in common? A house, for a start, but Nikola Šop and Jajce’s Svemirko go beyond brick and mortar.
Mostar // The Lučkiest Bridge in the World
Heavily-edited photography has changed the way we travel, but there’s something magical about seeing something stirring with your own naked eyes. Ladies and gentlemen, Mostar’s gorgeous Stari Most.
