Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Bosnia
and Herzegovina, text by Alojz Benac and Ivan Lovenovic. Hardcover
book published by Sour “Svjetlost” Jugoslovenska Revija 1986.
Each
epoch and period in the history of Bosnia and Herzegovina left its
own special mark on the country. This is most evident in those towns
which have seen the passage of several centuries – from medieval
Bosnia through the Turkish and Austro-Hungarian occupations. The new
sections of the towns and cities are distinguished by tall modern
buildings, symbols of the present epoch and of human labour. The
huge new residential estates in Sarajevo are examples of the
directions and accomplishments of contemporary architecture.
The town
of Mostar is the economic and cultural centre of Herzegovina,
situated on both banks of the Neretva at the foot of Mount Velez.
