Sarajevo

Sarajevo is the capital and largest city of Bosnia and Herzegovina, located in the heart of the Balkan Peninsula. Known for its rich cultural heritage, it is often described as a melting pot of Eastern and Western influences, reflecting a mix of Ottoman, Austro-Hungarian, and Yugoslav architecture. Sarajevo gained international attention during the 1984 Winter Olympics and the 1990s during the Bosnian War, particularly the Siege of Sarajevo. Today, it is a symbol of resilience, known for its diverse communities, historical significance, and efforts towards peace and reconciliation.
