Bihać, Riverside city in northwestern Bosnia and Herzegovina

The Una River flows through Bihać, creating multiple cascading waterfalls and natural barriers that shape the urban landscape of the city.

The settlement received status as a royal free city in 1262 from King Bela IV, marking its independence from local feudal control.

The Fethija Mosque, transformed from a Gothic Catholic church, exemplifies the architectural and religious changes that occurred during Ottoman rule.

The city functions as an administrative center with a population of 56,261 residents and maintains industries in timber processing and textile manufacturing.

The Japodian Islands within the city form natural river formations connected by wooden bridges, integrating water elements into daily urban life.
