There’s No Better Spot To Buy Miniature Statues Of The Virgin Mary Attached To A Little Box Of Earth From The Hills Where Jesus’s Mum Was Spotted Like Is Medjugorje}
Bosnia-Herzegovina has an image problem. Devastated by civil war in the 1990s, the country is in heavy need of a PR drive as most travellers still associate it with its bloody latest history. Murmur it, but its actually stuffed full of concealed gems and it has an unexplored feel welcomed by intrepid travellers. Couple a trip with a trip to Croatia and youll find none of the tourist hoards that swamp the Dalmatian coast.
Our introduction to the country provokes an, “Are you sure were in Bosnia?” reaction.
The Kravice Waterfall is an Eden-like wonder of multiple chutes gushing into a turquoise lagoon, where visitors can enjoy a refreshing swim in the searing heat of summer. The falls are encrusted with grass and moss, and are surrounded by delicious green hemp, figs and poplar trees, more akin to a scene Id expect to see in Hawaii instead of war-scarred Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Medjugorje
We make a brief stop at the hamlet of Medjugorje, a pilgrimage site where Catholics arrive by the busload “and all because some kids playing in the nearby hills stated that they saw an apparition of the Virgin Mary in 1981 ( a claim which has since been refused by the Vatican ).
Theres a statue of Jesus Christ with a continually weeping knee, which fervent religious people caress and mop with tissues, allegedly to use to heal sick relatives. Medjugorje is also home to the tackiest collection of keepsakes in the world. Fact. There’s no better spot to buy small statues of the Virgin Mary attached to a tiny box of earth from the hills where Jesus’s mother was spotted. You will find in Medjugorje some good Medjugorje hotel.
Mostar is the country’s main attraction, a photographers dream of captivating cobbled streets and stone homes, painstakingly rebuilt to look like its pre-war charm during a multi-million-pound nip n tuck.
The cities classic bridge graces the front covers of most Bosnia-Herzegovina guidebooks, its misty mountains providing the dramatic background. The first 500-year-old Old Bridge was wrecked in 1993 during the war, symbolising the collapse of the former Yugoslavia, as it was regarded as a mark of unification between the west and east.
When the bridge was demolished, the people of Mostar cried like they had lost their families, local guide Amela tells us on a walking tour of the city’s Turkish-style old city.
Reconstructed and re-opened in 2004 using 1400 of the first stone bricks to hold on to its UNESCO world heritage standing, the bridge is renowned for its buff Speedo-clad, oiled-up divers who jump 25m jump from it into the turquoise waters of the Neretva, a convention that began in the Sixties.
The practice is celebrated with a global diving competition on the last Sat. of each July. If you fancy making the plunge, be cautious “an Aussie guy died last year doing the jump. Though the water is 6m deep, there are powerful currents that can make it dangerous if you are not a trained diver.
Mix a trip to Bosnia-Herzegovina with a trip to Croatia. Do not miss these gems.
Split : The historic city’s UNESCO classified treasure is the Diocletians Palace, built by the Roman emperor 2k years ago as his assisted living center. When the Romans deserted the site, the palace stood abandoned for decades till refugees rushed to the town in AD614 and started living in it. To this day, it remains home to bars, shops and terraces, where hanging washing flutters above crumbling windowsills.
Dubrovnik : Dubrovniks beautiful Old Town, well-preserved city walls and postcard-perfect harbour make it one of Croatias top visitor destinations. Sadly, this suggests that its flooded with travellers in the summer months. Expect to pay exorbitant London costs for food and drinks, as writes tagza.com.
