Sarajevo is one of the most historically interesting and diverse cities in this part of Europe.
It is a place where the Western and Eastern Roman Empire split; where the people of the Roman Catholic west, Eastern Orthodox east and the Ottoman south, met, lived and warred.
It is both an example of historical turbulence and the clash of civilizations, as well as a beacon of hope for peace through multicultural tolerance.
The city is traditionally known for its religious diversity, with Muslims, Orthodox Christians, Catholics and Jews coexisting here for centuries.
Additionally, the city’s vast historic diversity is strongly reflected in its architecture.
Parts of the city have a very Central-European look, while other parts of the city, often blocks away, have a completely distinct Ottoman, some Soviet-like or Socialist modernism feel.
