The impressions from the New Year holidays haven’t quite settled yet, and the first month of this year is already behind us. Snow didn’t cover Sarajevo as we had hoped, but that didn’t keep you from taking tons of outstanding photographs, yet again.
The city of Sarajevo and surrounding mountains have hosted the 1984 Winter Olympic Games and ever since have become a synonym for top winter fun.
Nearby mountains Trebević, Igman, Bjelašnica, Jahorina and Ravna planina are at about half an hour drive from the city center. If you don’t own a car, you can use GRAS and Centrotrans bus lines, services of the Meet Bosnia Agency or arrange a fixed taxi fare.
One of the biggest pleasures of winter is to sit in some of Sarajevo’s charming places while sipping salep topped off with cinnamon, a drink that will warm you up and get you ready to explore our city.
Sarajevo is the perfect city to visit during the winter months, whether you are celebrating the holidays in town, or enjoying some mulled wine in front of a hotel fireplace and hitting the slopes up on the surrounding Olympic Mountains.
That Sarajevo occupies an area that has long been inhabited is testified to by the many remains left by the Butmir Civilization, Illyrians, Romans, the medieval Slavic state.... And, from the very moment when the Ottoman military leader, Isa Bey Ishaković, laid Sarajevo's foundations around 1460, the town continued to grow, absorbing and ultimately reflecting the various influences it has been subjected to over the centuries.
