Sarajevo's a city that we guarantee you'll fall in love with. From the Old Town, to the stories of resilience, to the FOOD - this city will leave such a lasting impression on anyone who visits. Come along as we explore the best things to do in Sarajevo!
We started off by grabbing some traditional Bosnian coffee at a really cool place called Ministry of Ćejf. This small little shop in Old Town has a really cool look/feel to it. Although it was a bit different from what we're used to, make sure to try it when visiting Sarajevo!
Next up was a stop in Baščaršija. This is considered the cultural & historical center of the city and dates back to the 15th century. You’ll find all kinds of shops, tea houses, and restaurants. At the center is is Sebilj Fountain, a pseudo-Moorish fountain that’s one of the city’s most recognizable symbols. It attracts people as well as pigeons, which is why it’s often referred to as Pigeon Square.
3. Visit the Latin Bridge/Museum of Sarajevo
After walking through the bazaar we headed over toward the Latin Bridge to the Museum of Sarajevo. This museum has a very notable location as it sits on the corner where Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated in 1914. This event is widely considered as the moment that lead tensions toward the beginning of WWI in Europe.
Next up were two museums centered around the Bosnia War in the 90s. The first is the Museum of Crimes against Humanity & Genocide. This museum displays the personal belongings of victims while exploring the darker history of the Bosnian War. The second museum we visited was the Gallery 11/07/95. This museum highlights the Srebrenica genocide. This genocide took place in and around the town of Srebrenica in July of 1995 where over 8,000 Bosniak Muslim men and boys were killed. These are extremely sad & sobering museums and exhibits, but they’re vital to fully understand the strength and resolve of the people in Bosnia.
In the same square as Gallery 11/07/95 is the catholic Neo-gothic church Sacred Heart Cathedral. Completed in 1887, it was damaged in the Siege of Sarajevo, but not completely destroyed. This is the largest cathedral in Bosnia & Herzegovina & is positioned right in the center of Old Town.
Sarajevo's got a huge muslim community & the city is dotted with stunning mosques. Gazi Huzrev-beg Mosque, or Bey’s Mosque, is a 16th century Ottoman mosque in Old Town and is the largest mosque in the country. Although it suffered significant damage during the war, it’s been reconstructed and is seen as the most important architectural monument from the time of Ottoman rule in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
One other really interesting building close by is Sarajevo City Hall, or Vijećnica. This building dates back to 1896, when Bosnia was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It was built in a pseudo-Moorish style is a tribute to the Muslim heritage here in the city. It’s functioned as a city hall, a Parliament House, and during the communist period, a library. At the time the library contained over 1.2 million books, but only 10-15% of the books were saved from the Siege of Sarajevo.
Bosnia REALLY knows how to cook, & you can't find much better food than at Klopa. We absolutely LOVED this restaurant and highly recommend it!
Vječna Vatra is the eternal flame of Sarajevo, and is such a perfect symbol of the spirit of the people here. It's an excellent reminder that no matter what the people of Sarajevo have gone through, they're an extraordinarily resilient people who remember their history in order to never repeat it.
We can't say enough how much we loved Sarajevo. We hope this helps you in case you ever visit, we know we will again! Thanks so much for watching & see you in a couple of days!

Thank you guys!!! They say if you drink from the Sebilj then you'll return to the city so we both made sure to take sips. It's too cool of a city not to visit again!
Another awesome video. Thanks guys! I travelled and worked in Bosnia about 10 years ago. Sarajevo is right up there with my favourite European cities. This brings it all back! Seems like you had a blast. Keep up the good work!

Thank you so much for the kind words!! We really loved Sarajevo. We had no idea that it was nestled in a valley, & the food blew us away too! Not to mention all the mosques throughout the city skyline. It's in our top 5 of the cities in Europe that blew our minds most. We just had NO IDEA it would be as cool as it is. Thank you so much for watching!!!!😊
Sarajevo to have a mosque, Catholic church, Orthodox church and synagogue in the same neighbourhood. (In a radius of 500 m.)

Fun fact, did you know that there's a replica of Sebilj fountain in St. Louis, Missouri? It's built by the Bosnian folks who moved there after the 90s. Google it, it looks very similar to the original one :)

I just googled it & you're definitely right!! That should be a question on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire or something lol. Before we got to Bosnia we really didn't have much of an idea what to expect but Sarajevo's one of our favorite cities now. There's a restaurant in the center of the city called Klopa that's seriously Hannah's favorite restaurant on the planet🤣
Such a cute couple 🤗 i liked this guide on sarjevo very much. I am going there tomorrow. Thanks ! ))

Absolutely. It's a poignant little reminder that Sarajevo (and Bosnians as a whole) doesn't back down. This country is so worth a visit. Hopefully you guys make it down here!!
Sarajevo is so beautiful! Great drone footage to give us all a good bird's-eye view of the city. I really enjoy the the museum visits to learn about the history of the cities that you tour, as well as the tours of the churches, cathedrals, mosques and restaurants. Wow, that food looked amazing. Yet another great video, ya'll! 😊

Thank you so much Jan!!! Honestly my biggest regret is that I didn't get more drone footage!!! We had a really awesome view of the surrounding hills from our Airbnb which reminded us every day to go out and explore. This city is SO much more than it's history. We can't wait to come back. Thank you so much for tuning in!!!
Sarajevo is a really beautiful city, and you guys did it justice with this awesome video

Anwesome Video 👍🏻 For the next time I would recommend you a cold Sarajevsko in the bar of the brewery (Just the beer nothing to eat 😅) and of course a visit to the old city wall (the wall is nothing overwhelming but still cool)

The correct pronounciation of the city is Srebreniça o Srebrenitsa, not Srebrenica 4:43
