Sarajevo

I wish I would visit this amazing city - Sarajevo in the future! :) Thank you very much my Bosnian friends, Snježana and Edin!

The city Sarajevo is famous for its traditional cultural and religious diversity, with adherents of Islam, Orthodoxy, Catholicism and Judaism coexisting there for centuries. As you can see from the first postcard, which was sent by Snježana from her hometown Tuzla, the Emperor's Mosque (Islam) , the Sacred Heart Cathedral (Catholicism) and the Cathedral Church of the Nativity of the Theotokos (Orthodoxy) of the city.  Edin, who lives in Zenica, sent me the second postcard of aerial view of the city when he had a short trip in Sarajevo. I really appreciated their friendship!

Visit Bosnia - Jajce and Travnik

As requested by me, Snježana was kind enough to send me two cards using the Europa stamps 2012 - "Visit". They show me Jajce and Travnik, two cities in the central part of Bosnia. The town Jajce is especially famous for its beautiful waterfall and it is on the tentative lists for future inscription as a UNESCO World Heritage site under title "The natural and architectural ensemble of Jajce". Thank you so much Snježana!
