Bosnia and Herzegovina, the land of the heart, as it is called because of its shape, really touches your heart. It has always been a wonderful meeting point of eastern and western cultures, as it bears the stamp of two completely different empires, Turkish and Austrian-Hungarian. Land of good food, outstanding, open people and fun offers visitors stunning mountain landscapes and great experiences with a good sense of adventure. Enjoy the Bosnian rhythm and life will be better and
easier in a moment.
