Mostar is a historic city in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), located on the banks of the Neretva River and known for its iconic Old Bridge (Stari Most). Built by the Ottoman Empire in the 16th century, the bridge was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2005 and symbolizes multicultural integration.
The city is located in the south of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with a mild climate and surrounded by mountains. Mostar's architecture is a blend of Ottoman, Mediterranean and European styles, with traditional workshops and mosques lining the stone streets of the old town. The annual summer bridge diving competition attracts tourists from all over the world and reflects the adventurous spirit of the region.
Tourism is the mainstay of Mostar's economy, with the Old Bridge and surrounding monuments and war memorials (such as the remnants of the 1990s conflict) being the main attractions. The city focuses on reconstruction and peace education, and receives hundreds of thousands of visitors each year, boosting the regional economy.
