Cumurija bridge over Miljacka river, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina
|
 |
| Festina lente (Latin for "make haste slowly") is a pedestrian bridge over the Miljacka River in Sarajevo. |
 |
Sarajevo’s
Pijaca Markale is the biggest local bazaar in the city. Old women sit
in their stalls selling everything from socks to tissues at this market
near Bascarsija. Visitors walk around to soak up the atmosphere and
experience the local culture.
This
market has a dark history in the Siege of Sarajevo. On two occasions,
the first in February 1994 and the second in August 1995, shells hit the
crowded market. More than 100 people were killed and many others
wounded.
