And also the monastic grape fields and the famous Bosnian Duvan - how tobacco grows (Herzegovina flor), which was smoked by Joseph Brus Tito and Stalin. Surprisingly, local residents sell bags of this ready-made tobacco in the city center without examinations and permits.

Excursion to the Kravice waterfalls - a national park in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Truly beautiful and inspiring for every tourist with their unusual natural beauties. The Trebižat River originates in the center of the country, with a length of 51 km, which forms the second longest river in Bosnia and Herzegovina. One part of it runs underground, the second - in the open air, flowing like a waterfall into a beautiful emerald-colored lagoon. Sleeves of white water fall from a 25-meter height, shimmering with hundreds of rainbows into the azure water.

The best time to visit the Kravice waterfall is from April to July. At this time, the river is full and the streams of falling water are quite wide. There is a lot of fish in the lake, but fishing is prohibited - it is a nature reserve. Be sure to bring swimsuits and towels as swimming is allowed in the lake. The water is clean and transparent, very pleasant to swim. You are allowed to jump into the lake and stand under the falling streams of water. The photos turn out great! Nearby there are places to change clothes, restaurants and cafes where you can have a snack and drink refreshments! Here we will spend about 1-1.5 hours.

After enjoying the beauty and swimming, we will head to the city Mostar.

The most important attraction and beautiful place is the bridge over the Neretva River. Built in the 16th century, standing for almost 420 years, it was blown up by a falling bomb during the war, but then reconstructed and to this day colors the city center.

Mostar is a beautiful and large city, listed under the protection of UNESCO. About 100 thousand people of different faiths live here, so you can see Catholic cathedrals and mosques.

Annual bridge diving competitions are held in Mostar - this event is watched by thousands of city residents and guests.
