Bosnia and Herzegovina is a country born from war, still struggling to find its place in Europe, but no less beautiful as a result. This nation is full of culture, historic towns and rugged mountains. The capital, Sarajevo, is a heady mix of Ottoman, Austro-Hungarian and Soviet architecture with a thriving cafe culture and wonderful museums, all surround by the majestic Dinaric Alps. Historic Mostar and its 16th-century bridge is an icon of the region, famous for its divers, who plunge from 24 metres into the icy waters of the Neretva river to the delight of applauding tourists and locals alike.
