Sarajevo a city of 500,000 people a d Bosnia a country of 3.5 millions citizens marked by the war from 1991-1995.
Our guide was living in Sarajevo at the time the Serbian
bombardment started and was the in the last bus of women and children
evacuated before the bridge of Sarajevo was destroyed. Sarajevo was
under siege for three years.
For one year she had no contact with her family. Her
husband stayed in Bosnia all the time of the war. Sarajevo was under
Siege for 3 years and to get out of the town it was one tunnel built
from one house to the world outside. Trough that tunnel provisions were
brought from outside for an entire city.
To cock food they had one stove.and they used house items
as fuel such as shoes. They found out that one shoe is good for cooking
one bread. Parquet was used as fuel and everything else.that burned.
She and her family moved in England and USA after war where
they lived for a while but then they returned with their kids back in
Bosnia in 1995.within one month they decided to buy a house in Sarajevo
and sell the house in USA never locking back.
Curiosities about Bosnia. They have 3 presidents simultaneously at 3.5 million peoples.
They are not part of the EU European Union.They consider
that natural resources will be stolen by this supranational structure
that is European Union.
In the central park there are pictures of those killed by Serbian army during the war.
I asked the cause for the war. The guide told me that
external forces started the war and external forces ended the war and
imposed their conditions at the end of the war.
There are still buildings with signs of war. Some of the
buildings have been reconstructed using plans of the initial buildings
found in the archives; some used old archives found in Vienna.
Sarajevo was the place where Ferdinand and his wife were killed in 1914 and that event started the first world war.
The scenery in the city is amazing.peoples are nice. The city is a multicultural city with the Muslim majority.
We.arrived here with the intention to visit Bosnian Pyramid which we did.
