|  | Sarajevo Winter 2004 The centre of Bascarsija, Sarajevo`s old town, consists of the pretty Bascarsija square focusing on the sebilj (fountain) and the stick-armed pensioners selling seeds for the pigeons. Around it, some forty small carsija (streets), each named after the specific craft that was practised in them. Saraci, the main street linking to Ferhadija is where the leather workers resided, and tiny Kazandziluk still houses mainly shops with hand-made copper products. Bascarsija houses Sarajevo`s main Ottoman-era sights, most of which can be seen on a leisurely stroll of an hour. |
