Old Bridge in Mostar, Bosnia i Hercegovina

            When visiting Bosnia this is one of the must haves; the old Turkish bridge that was blown up during the war and rebuilt to exact specifications afterwards. The town is lively, colorful and growing in tourism, but the many scars from the war can easily be seen as well. Many shelled out buildings sit next to restored ones in the area alongside the Neretva river. They are hoping for more tourists that stay overnight, but so far the biggest group are day trippers from Dubrovnik. 

Mostar is actually located in the area of Herzegovina, which is the smaller part of the country, drier and with a Mediterranean climate, south of a mountain range that divides the country.
Besides the geographical division, there is also the political division which is Bosnia (Muslim) and Srpska (Orthodox). Mostar lies in the Muslim part.

I tried some blue hours on both sides of the bridge, and eventually chose this one as it includes the whole reflection whereas the other side suffers from expanding shrubbery.
