- Greetings from Bosnia & Herzegovina! Our FIRST IMPRESSIONS Of SARAJEVO 🇧🇦 | Bosnia & Herzegovina's Capital City
Our very first experience of Bosnia & Herzegovina was the capital city of Sarajevo. We were so intrigued by this very quirky country and city with a very tragic history. Join us as we explore the city of Sarajevo and share our first impressions. This city surprised us and it may just surprise you too.

Did anything about Sarajevo surprise you? 🇧🇦
The different Presidents
@@elaineurban8820 we found that really surprising too!? 😮
That the historic centre is not really in the centre, but at the eastern end of the city. Of course, the city sits in the valley so it could not spread to all directions, but just downstream. Anyways, there are lots of things there for you to discover. Is it still that cheap as it was back in 2012? I remember that average meal price at/near Bascarsija was 5-6 KM. Bosanska kafa 1-1.50.
@@elaineurban8820 it is complicated, two entities, three constituent "ethnicities", one president and government for each plus three languages that are one and the same to be honest
@@MartinKyral that's so interesting we didn't know that 🤓 We can't really comment on average prices because we weren't there for very long but we did notice that it was cheaper to eat at a restaurant than buy groceries for a meal which we haven't experienced in any other country 💸
Wellcome to Bosnia 🇧🇦🇧🇦
Thank you! 😄🙌🏼
Now this is how you make a respectful video! Thank you for appreciating our country and all of its uniqueness. Such a beautiful video, come back anytime!☺️❣️
Thank you for much Amina 😄 we're so happy you enjoyed our video! We really enjoyed experiencing your country! 🇧🇦
Thank u guys for visiting Bosnia❤
Thank you for watching Senad 😁 are you from Bosnia? 🇧🇦
Just a small correction to the mosque and church next to each other, it is not a church but a clock tower, if you zoom in you will see that numbers are in arabic, and the time it shows is not our standardized 24 but rather the position of a sun to indicate the time of daily prayer(i.e sunset is end of the day in Islam and next day has already began, even though it might be 18:00 of our regular clocks :) but everyone is using standard time tracking of 00:00 - 24:00, clock tower was followed in the past but not anymore
Thank you so much for correcting us 😇 this is so interesting!
@@SarahandMarek no worries, I am glad that u have enjoyed city i grew up, I have moved after my studies abroad and no longer live there, but I like to experience the city with travelers such as yourselves so it brings some good memories :) cheers and stay safe on a road :)
I am so taken with this delightful video! The clips at the start are so professional! The editing blows me away.
Thank you so much Mammer! Marek works so hard and I love the way he edits our videos 🤓
Love you guys, thanks for visiting ❤️⚜️🇧🇦
Thank you so much ☺️ And thank you for watching! In your opinion what is the best place to visit in Bosnia & Herzegovina? 🇧🇦
@@SarahandMarek You should come and visit Mostar too, waterfall Kravice is nearby. About half an hour driving with car from Mostar. Thank you for visiting Sarajevo, we hope you brought some good memories from here. We hope to see you again :)
Wow. Amazing. Loved it.
Dankie ma 🤩
By the end of the video I felt like I too had experienced a little of the feelings you were talking about... thanks for telling it so well!
Thanks so much Becks 😊 we take that as such a compliment!
6:55 I was born in Sarajevo and live in Croatia currently but that doesn't matter, what matters is that I am from Sarajevo and I read a lot news about it, soon these paper tickets and paying with money might be a thing of past because later in this year there will be cards instead of tickets, cards that are similar to mastercard, visa card etc., but only used as tickets and electronic card readers which will revolutionise Sarajevo's public transport, that's just one part though and also you can't go with a tram through whole route because tracks on the west side of town are being reconstructed so you would have to use bus as a substitute for a tram, low floor trams should come next year and new trolleybuses should come this year plus the traffic lights and management should also improve so I would suggest you to visit Sarajevo again later if you will be able to, all of that should also be done what I put here if another war doesn't break out and I don't want that myself especially the citizens, anyways if you two will be able to, visit Sarajevo again and bring friends along for them to see the beauty of this city in person
Thanks so much for your comment! 😄 Those improvements to the public transport system sound fantastic!
Beautiful video, thank you ❤️❤️
Thank yo for watching 😊💕
Very educational video. Nice.
Thank you so much! We really appreciate that 😃
That what you did with cofee was so funy .... we do not do that :) :) But it was interesting so everyone vas staring at you🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha 😂 I really thought I was having traditional Bosnian coffee by pouring it that way 😂
Very great work at the topic of your video, nice story telling and boundless wisdom shared .
Truly beautiful guys
Have a nice weekend
Thank you so much guys ☺️ We really appreciate it! Have an awesome weekend!
This is a very well-put together video, by far my favourite TH-cam video about Sarajevo. Good job 👏
Thank you so much 😄 that really means a lot! Are you from Sarajevo? 🇧🇦
@@SarahandMarek I am Bosnian 🇧🇦, but not from the city Sarajevo.
@@hafsusa6683 which city are you from? We only visited Sarajevo and Banja Luka during our time in Bosnia 😊
@@SarahandMarek a city called Travnik, its a lot smaller than Sarajevo.
8:02 train to Banja Luka used to operate, but due to COVID crisis it was removed and it was never reestablished for some reason
That's really unfortunate, I hope they manage to open that line again 🙌🏼 we really enjoy taking trains how about you? 😄🚞
@@SarahandMarek I rarely use them, but I gotta say that trains are better than buses
I would have figured it was the more obvious reason
Nice video! 👍 Sarah & Marek if you are planning to go hiking in the mountains, it is best to go with a local guide. In some places there are still land mines from the Bosnia war.
Thanks so much Ferry! 😄 Wow, that's really good to know 😯 thanks so much for the heads up!
My beautiful Sarajevo
It is a beautiful city! 🇧🇦 Do you live there?
Mashallah so beautiful thankyou super like🌹🇲🇦✌👌
Thank you so much ☺️💛
An orange bus!! ❤️
I think it could have been a tram 🤭
i see that you like skiing you should visit ski resorts bjelasnica and jahorina near sarajevo
Thanks so much for the suggestion! 😄 Unfortunately we aren't in Bosnia & Herzegovina anymore but we'll keep that in mind for next time 😊
Imagine how lovely you will remember that time testing Bosnian Coffee like after 20, 30 years.🥺
So true! We are so grateful to be seeing different countries and having experiences like this 🥰 Have you been to Sarajevo? 😄
No, but I would love to!
9:15 Oh no, you don't pour coffee over Turkish delight. haha I just didn't think you would do that. It's just for you to eat if you want or not. Someone must have corrected you on that already. I would be shocked if someone didn't because I have never seen someone do that. That is probably the reason people from the inside were staring at you :) The sugar cube, you take a bite of it and take a sip of coffee.
Haha we must have looked quite silly hey Jasmina? 🤣 We later realised how wrong we were but still absolutely loved it! Although we drank it incorrectly 🤭 thank you for telling us though 😊
Thanks guys lots of interesting information ...can't wait to see your next workaway. Xx
Thanks so much for watching Rella ☺️ our next workaway was quite a different and somewhat challenging we experience 😅
Great episode! Bosnia-Herzegovina looks like a great destination with all that history and culture. Thank you! 😊
And btw, Georgia misses you guys. 😁😊😍
Thank you so much ☺️ We miss Georgia too! 😍🇬🇪
Yes we are only country in world have 3 president, Croats,Serbs,muslims 😅, two region Republic of srpska (orthodox serbs), and federation od Bosnia and Herzegovina (Bosniak muslims and croats) but fuck war and politics 🍺🍺
3.23 its not a church but ok ( btw its a clock tower ). There are churches, not far away from that mosque, an catholic one and the orthodox one and a synagogue too. Nice video
Sarajevo
❤
🙌🏼😄🇧🇦
01:21 / 06:54 - interesting to see those trams still in operation. I used to ride them in Cologne/Germany when a did military service in 1974/1975. They were built in 1963/1965 and withdrawn from service in 1996.
Wow, that's so interesting! Thank yiu for watching and for sharing this with us 😊 Have you visited Sarajevo?
Great video 👍 but next to the Begova. Mosque it is not the Curch it is Sahat kula ( lunar clock) the only one in the all world. I realy like your video👍👌❤️
Thanks so much for letting us know ☺️ that is so interesting! Thank you for watching 😄🙌🏼🇧🇦
The dude at 4:43 hit his car 😂
Churches are very close to Mosques, so you are right about that, but not that close. xD The Building you have shown that's next to the mosque is actually a Clock Tower. Its also one of the famous buildings of Sarajevo. But there is a Cathedral like maybe a hundred meters from that Mosque u have shown.
Thanks so much for telling us, sorry for our mistake 😅
Thank you. You're so cute. 💘💘❣❣💚
Thank you for watching! ❤️
I said it looked like a koeksuster, then Marek confirmed that it tasted just like one!
Yes! I felt like I was transported back to SA munching on a koeksister 😋
They were too sweet for me. Am impressed how you guys try everything! 👏 well done 👏
@@mirellalep definitely can't eat too many koeksisters because they are very sweet but also delicious 😋 thank you so much Rella ☺️
They were looking at you because when you drink Bosnian coffee you don’t keep sugar and rahatlokum in the cup ( fildjan )
Thank you so much for telling us, Amro 😊 we must have looked quite silly but it was still incredibly delicious 😃
great video, but funny to see you pour coffee on the Turkish delight, it is for eating. People usually dip the sugar in the coffee and nibble a little with each sip. But hey, you pay for it, drink it how you like. Just a tip for others watching
Hahaha yeah we definitely felt like we were doing that wrong 🤣
I have also a dream to travel with my life partner like you guys...
That's amazing! You should definitely do it, it has been an incredible experience 😁
@@SarahandMarek Thanks for your reply
Bog Bosna ⚜️
Its a wonderful country 😊
Sarah & Marek have you taken a ride in Trebević cable car
Unfortunately not. The weather really wasn't on our side 🙈 but there's always next time 😄🙌🏼
@@SarahandMarek next time is never too late
Those people were staring at you becouse you left turkish delight inside coffee cup . You not ment to do that ,you ment to eat it after you drink coffee to kill off coffee taste in your mouth
Haha after watching videos, we realized that we did it completely wrong 🤣 must have been quite a sight for the locals 🤭 thank you for telling us though 😊
hi ... whereto get good money exchange rae in sarajevo ?
That looks a bit like Bursa in Turkey. Like twin city.
It was so interesting to us how we felt like we had walked straight back into Turkey in some parts of the city 😮
@@SarahandMarek well I was checked and I was correct, Sarajevo is Twin/sister city of Bursa in Turkey.
@@Miki-So That is really cool! 😄 we love learning new facts from the chats in the comments 🥳 keep the facts coming!
@@SarahandMarek I am not sure if you've been to Bursa? But if you Visit Turkey, try to visit Bursa, it's pretty near from Istanbul and you will remember my words, you'll definitely have feeling like Sarajevo.
@@Miki-So we have not had the chance to visit Bursa but if we ever do, you can be sure that we will be thinking about you thr whole time 🤭
3:24 its not a church its a clock tower.
Thanks so much for letting us know 😊 sorry for our mistake
3:22 that isnt a church :)
DEARIES YOU EAT RAHAT LOCKUM BY HAND BIT BY BIT AND SIP COFEE BIT BY BIT AS WELL🤣 AND YOU CAN DO THE SAME WITH THE SUGAR CUBE. YOU NEVER EVER POUR ANYTHING OVER TURKISH DELIGHT.
Hahaha hey Nada 😄 we thought that we were doing something wrong but it tasted so GOOD! 🤤 thank you for letting us know though, we will make sure to do it properly next time 😁
You didn't show the mosques!
I 🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰❤love you Bosnia I like Bosn.ia I love you Pakistan I love you Bosnia
Thank you so much, Asheer! 😁
Have I just watched you eat cevapi with a knife and fork 😢
Oh no 🙊 How are you supposed to eat it?
@@SarahandMarek I thought it was a sin not to pick it up and eat it with your hands like a sandwich hahah i could be wrong though! Where are you guys off to next give us a hint ❤️
people in BiH are not so used to people walking around with camera and recording , they think automatically its a press or something .. it is 2022 but a lot of nations in Balkans are having some lets say " 1902 mentality" . they are using most of the stuff this modern world has 2 offer but their way of thinking is limited ( mostly at old people ), new generations are up to date .
Thanks so much for the explanation ☺️ That makes perfect sense we were wondering why every person we passed was staring at us 😅
@@SarahandMarek no, Bosnian people are not retards living 100 years back that are not ised to filming. Are you insain? Sarajevo is movie capitol of southeastern Eturope. WE have several Oscar winners and nominees for gods sake. People were starring because you were sitting outside in the rain and filming in the rain. In Bosnoa just like in the rest of the world, people go inside when it rains. FFS
3:22 - is the Sahat Kula (clock tower) not church :)) but yes, 100-150 meters from that mosque (Begova dzamija), you have Catholic church and eastern Orthodox church... little down the road 5 minutes walk tops, there's a synagogue as well.
9:23 - 😬🤦🏼♂️ I'm not blaming you or judging for that matter.
Thanks so much for telling us, sorry for our mistake 😅 I realized later that we drank the coffee wrong 🤣 but it tasted really good!
Big respect
But no, that's not how you drink coffee.
Haha we realized 🤣🤣🤣
3:21 is not church.
Thanks for letting us know 🙌🏼 sorry for our mistake 😅
@@SarahandMarek You’re welcome. It surely looks like a church, but it’s only old clock tower from the times of ottoman empire.
thank you for the information guys! but i really interestng in vegan food....how the country is develop....still eating animals...are not so for deveop countrys or societies...regards from Peru
We asked a friend while traveling through Bosnia and he said veganism is not really a thing there yet. When you go to restaurants you might find vegetarian options but you won't find many vegan options. Hope this helps :)
There is no nation like bosnians.
3:08 Turkey is a European country by many aspects! What an offensive use of language!
I think you may have misunderstood us. We didn't say anything about Turkey not being a European country 😅
But it is different from western europe by many other aspects.don’t see anything offensive in what was said in the video
I "identify" as a Bosniak War Criminal.... Just sayin'.... Respect my pronouns!
What?
@@hafsusa6683 It was just a joke LOL
