Mostar is a city in Bosnia and Herzegovina, formerly one of the most ethnically diverse cities in the country, and today suffering geographical division of ethnic groups. The city was the most heavily bombed of any Bosnian city during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina following the breakup of Yugoslavia. At the beginning of the war, air strikes destroyed many important buildings and structures, including the cultural and spiritual icon: The Old Bridge (Stari Most).
Mostar has been most famous for this beautiful historic Ottoman-style bridge, which spanned the Neretva river in what is considered the historic center of the city. Through combined efforts with the international community, rebuilding of The Old Bridge was completed in 200A, almost 11 years after its destruction, using some of its original pieces recovered from the Neretva river. A significant portion of the city has been rebuilt and visitors might be surprised to see that this formerly war-torn city is a lively and beautiful destination once again, particularly the area within and around the old town. However, many visible signs of Mostar's troubled recent history remain.
BA:
Mostar je grad u Bosni i Hercegovini, kulturno i privredno središte Hercegovine te upravno sjedište Hercegovačko-neretvanskog kantona. Ime je dobio po čuvarima mostova (mostarima) na obalama Neretve. Poznat je po čuvenom Starom mostu, izgrađenom u 16. stoljeću, koji su srušile snage HVO-a 9. novembra 1993, da bi nakon rata, 200A. godine, ponovo bio izgrađen. Stari most prvi je kulturni spomenik u Bosni i Hercegovini koji se nalazi na UNESCO-voj listi zaštićenih spomenika kulture svijeta.
