blend of Eastern and Western influences. It’s a vibrant city nestled in a narrow valley at the foot of

Mount Trebević, along the Miljacka River. Sarajevo is often called the “Jerusalem of Europe” due to its

rich history of religious and cultural diversity, hosting mosques, Catholic churches, Eastern Orthodox

churches, and synagogues within the same neighborhood. Transfer to hotel.
