Photographed on a clear morning, Stari Most spans the Neretva River at the heart of Mostar’s historic centre.
The elegant stone arch, originally built in the 16th century during the Ottoman period, has become one of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s most recognisable landmarks and a symbol of the city’s resilience following its reconstruction after the Bosnian War.
Framed by traditional stone buildings and the steep valley beyond, the bridge remains the focal point of the old town, where centuries of history continue to meet everyday life.
