The capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Have you ever been to Sarejeovo?
If you travel through the balkan you should visit this town.
Why: This city has a very special athmosphere.
On the one hand it is the city withe the most soldiers.
KFOR troups are still controling street life.
On the other hand it is a growing city.
The traces of war are still there but they are getting rare.
And what is also special about Sarajevo it has been the
host city of the olympic winter games in 1984.

Traces of war in Sarajevo

During the civil war sarajevo was bombed from all sides.
This building was hit by many bombs.
But it is still standing!
It is one of the biggist houses in Sarajevo.

The capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Another bombed house in Sarajevo.
In a few years this will be repaired and
the traces of war are not seeable.
But in the heads the pain will remain!
