From Sarajevo: Strbacki Buk & Jajce Waterfalls Day Trip

The colorful mosque located in Travnik has always been a special and unavoidable tourist attraction due to its unique and original style. It is adorned with unusual ornaments depicting blossoming trees, vines, and apple trees, and is decorated with calligraphic details in the Arabic language. The mosque was originally built in 1757 and was later restored by Ćamil Ahmed Pasha. He built a bezistan under it that contained ten shops and had two entrances. Additionally, he built another seventy shops around it. As part of the restoration, a fountain with four pipes was also built next to the mosque, and water was brought into it from the existing water supply. After the fire in 1815, Sulejman Pasha Skopljak rebuilt the mosque and it was renamed Sulejmanija in his honor. Sulejman Pasha Skopljak served in Travnik from October 27, 1815, to January 23, 1818. He donated a high Turkish decoration for safekeeping to the mosque and left a rich vizier endowment for the maintenance of the mosque.

Kings strolled through the streets of Jajce in ceremonial attire, their long mantles framed with gold thread, admiring the beautiful landscapes that delighted anyone who visited the city. Even today, Jajce still holds itself in a kingly fashion as you can discover its ancient soul by exploring its 30 national monuments. Have you ever wondered what a king would see when he woke up in the morning in the old fortress? Would he look out at the surrounding waters of Jajce, or perhaps at the peak of Huma or Ranče? Would he admire the city descending towards Pliva, or unknowingly look towards the place where he would be buried? The medieval fortress still boasts the most beautiful view, primarily of the old Bosnian houses and the clock tower. Beyond that, you can see the Orthodox Church of Nativity of the Most Holy Mother of God and the Franciscan monastery that contains the bones of Stjepan Tomašević, the last Bosnian king. His coronation was held near the fortress in the Church of St.

Forget where you came from, what your name is, and what you do. In a word, indulge in amnesia. Turn your brain OFF. Turn the heart on ON. If you want, you can also leave the lungs on ON. You take the best place with a view of the waterfall and enjoy it. That's the only way, following my instructions, you can experience a culture shock. Jajce may have a funny name ( admit it! ), but... I was delighted by that city. I don't know how it is for the citizens of Jajce who are used to that beautiful waterfall, but if I lived in Jajce, I would admire the waterfall every day, every night, maybe even every moment. Guys, it's wonderful. Nothing is as fascinating as the work of nature. Nature is natural!

The mills are situated five kilometers away from the center of Jajce. They are built of oak wood and are an excellent example of traditional construction methods and local carpentry skills. The water mills were built on a travertine barrier between the Great and Small Pliv lakes. According to data from 1562, there were 24 mills in Jajce at that time, six of which were not in operation. However, by the 17th century, the number had increased to 26. Although the mills are no longer in use, they remain an integral part of the unique panorama of the Pliva lakes. Wealthy landowners owned the mills and gave them to the local population for use. The tax on the mills was paid in flour. For centuries, people from the surrounding villages brought full sacks of grain and wheat on horses, which they ground in the mills and took home as flour. The historical significance of the mills, as a reflection of the former Bosnian tradition of work and way of life, resulted in their restoration in 2005.

Many visitors to the Una National Park consider Štrbacki Buk to be one of the main attractions in the area. The Štrbački buk is the tallest waterfall on the Una river. It is a stunning natural beauty which was formed due to tectonic movements and the deposition of sedimentary rock-turpentine over thousands of years.
