That the historic centre is not really in the centre, but at the eastern end of the city. Of course, the city sits in the valley so it could not spread to all directions, but just downstream. Anyways, there are lots of things there for you to discover. Is it still that cheap as it was back in 2012? I remember that average meal price at/near Bascarsija was 5-6 KM. Bosanska kafa 1-1.50.
@@elaineurban8820 it is complicated, two entities, three constituent "ethnicities", one president and government for each plus three languages that are one and the same to be honest
@@MartinKyral that's so interesting we didn't know that 🤓 We can't really comment on average prices because we weren't there for very long but we did notice that it was cheaper to eat at a restaurant than buy groceries for a meal which we haven't experienced in any other country 💸
Now this is how you make a respectful video! Thank you for appreciating our country and all of its uniqueness. Such a beautiful video, come back anytime!☺️❣️
Just a small correction to the mosque and church next to each other, it is not a church but a clock tower, if you zoom in you will see that numbers are in arabic, and the time it shows is not our standardized 24 but rather the position of a sun to indicate the time of daily prayer(i.e sunset is end of the day in Islam and next day has already began, even though it might be 18:00 of our regular clocks :) but everyone is using standard time tracking of 00:00 - 24:00, clock tower was followed in the past but not anymore
@@SarahandMarek no worries, I am glad that u have enjoyed city i grew up, I have moved after my studies abroad and no longer live there, but I like to experience the city with travelers such as yourselves so it brings some good memories :) cheers and stay safe on a road :)
6:55 I was born in Sarajevo and live in Croatia currently but that doesn't matter, what matters is that I am from Sarajevo and I read a lot news about it, soon these paper tickets and paying with money might be a thing of past because later in this year there will be cards instead of tickets, cards that are similar to mastercard, visa card etc., but only used as tickets and electronic card readers which will revolutionise Sarajevo's public transport, that's just one part though and also you can't go with a tram through whole route because tracks on the west side of town are being reconstructed so you would have to use bus as a substitute for a tram, low floor trams should come next year and new trolleybuses should come this year plus the traffic lights and management should also improve so I would suggest you to visit Sarajevo again later if you will be able to, all of that should also be done what I put here if another war doesn't break out and I don't want that myself especially the citizens, anyways if you two will be able to, visit Sarajevo again and bring friends along for them to see the beauty of this city in person
@@SarahandMarek You should come and visit Mostar too, waterfall Kravice is nearby. About half an hour driving with car from Mostar. Thank you for visiting Sarajevo, we hope you brought some good memories from here. We hope to see you again :)
9:15 Oh no, you don't pour coffee over Turkish delight. haha I just didn't think you would do that. It's just for you to eat if you want or not. Someone must have corrected you on that already. I would be shocked if someone didn't because I have never seen someone do that. That is probably the reason people from the inside were staring at you :) The sugar cube, you take a bite of it and take a sip of coffee.
Haha we must have looked quite silly hey Jasmina? 🤣 We later realised how wrong we were but still absolutely loved it! Although we drank it incorrectly 🤭 thank you for telling us though 😊
Yes we are only country in world have 3 president, Croats,Serbs,muslims 😅, two region Republic of srpska (orthodox serbs), and federation od Bosnia and Herzegovina (Bosniak muslims and croats) but fuck war and politics 🍺🍺

i see that you like skiing you should visit ski resorts bjelasnica and jahorina near sarajevo
Great video 👍 but next to the Begova. Mosque it is not the Curch it is Sahat kula ( lunar clock) the only one in the all world. I realy like your video👍👌❤️
Nice video! 👍 Sarah & Marek if you are planning to go hiking in the mountains, it is best to go with a local guide. In some places there are still land mines from the Bosnia war.
DEARIES YOU EAT RAHAT LOCKUM BY HAND BIT BY BIT AND SIP COFEE BIT BY BIT AS WELL🤣 AND YOU CAN DO THE SAME WITH THE SUGAR CUBE. YOU NEVER EVER POUR ANYTHING OVER TURKISH DELIGHT.
Hahaha hey Nada 😄 we thought that we were doing something wrong but it tasted so GOOD! 🤤 thank you for letting us know though, we will make sure to do it properly next time 😁
great video, but funny to see you pour coffee on the Turkish delight, it is for eating. People usually dip the sugar in the coffee and nibble a little with each sip. But hey, you pay for it, drink it how you like. Just a tip for others watching
3.23 its not a church but ok ( btw its a clock tower ). There are churches, not far away from that mosque, an catholic one and the orthodox one and a synagogue too. Nice video
Those people were staring at you becouse you left turkish delight inside coffee cup . You not ment to do that ,you ment to eat it after you drink coffee to kill off coffee taste in your mouth
Haha after watching videos, we realized that we did it completely wrong 🤣 must have been quite a sight for the locals 🤭 thank you for telling us though 😊
people in BiH are not so used to people walking around with camera and recording , they think automatically its a press or something .. it is 2022 but a lot of nations in Balkans are having some lets say " 1902 mentality" . they are using most of the stuff this modern world has 2 offer but their way of thinking is limited ( mostly at old people ), new generations are up to date .
@@SarahandMarek no, Bosnian people are not retards living 100 years back that are not ised to filming. Are you insain? Sarajevo is movie capitol of southeastern Eturope. WE have several Oscar winners and nominees for gods sake. People were starring because you were sitting outside in the rain and filming in the rain. In Bosnoa just like in the rest of the world, people go inside when it rains. FFS
01:21 / 06:54 - interesting to see those trams still in operation. I used to ride them in Cologne/Germany when a did military service in 1974/1975. They were built in 1963/1965 and withdrawn from service in 1996.
Churches are very close to Mosques, so you are right about that, but not that close. xD The Building you have shown that's next to the mosque is actually a Clock Tower. Its also one of the famous buildings of Sarajevo. But there is a Cathedral like maybe a hundred meters from that Mosque u have shown.
@@SarahandMarek I thought it was a sin not to pick it up and eat it with your hands like a sandwich hahah i could be wrong though! Where are you guys off to next give us a hint ❤️
3:22 - is the Sahat Kula (clock tower) not church :)) but yes, 100-150 meters from that mosque (Begova dzamija), you have Catholic church and eastern Orthodox church... little down the road 5 minutes walk tops, there's a synagogue as well. 9:23 - 😬🤦🏼♂️ I'm not blaming you or judging for that matter.
@@SarahandMarek I am not sure if you've been to Bursa? But if you Visit Turkey, try to visit Bursa, it's pretty near from Istanbul and you will remember my words, you'll definitely have feeling like Sarajevo.
thank you for the information guys! but i really interestng in vegan food....how the country is develop....still eating animals...are not so for deveop countrys or societies...regards from Peru
We asked a friend while traveling through Bosnia and he said veganism is not really a thing there yet. When you go to restaurants you might find vegetarian options but you won't find many vegan options. Hope this helps :)
