Mostar, Medieval trading city in Herzegovina region, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The Neretva River divides Mostar into two sections, with the reconstructed stone arch bridge connecting the eastern and western neighborhoods at its center point.
The settlement started as a small trading post in 1452 near a wooden bridge, expanding into a significant Ottoman administrative center over the following centuries.
The eastern part contains numerous mosques and Turkish houses, while the western section features Catholic churches and Austro-Hungarian architecture from the 1900s.
Located 60 meters above sea level, Mostar connects to Sarajevo and the Adriatic coast through regular bus services and a restored railway line.
Professional divers regularly jump from the 24-meter-high Old Bridge into the cold waters of the Neretva River during summer competitions.
