  SCC - Sarajevo City Center

  No other neighborhood in Sarajevo has such a turbulent history as the Grbavica district, which was not only shelled during the siege of the city, but occupied by enemy troops. After 1996, the residents slowly rebuilt their Grbavica - into a vibrant district with many restaurants and cafés and small green oases hidden between socialist architecture. You start your tour at Sarajevo City Center and walk past the Parliament to your first tasting destination!

  30 minutes • Admission ticket included
• Jordanian Mosque (Pass by)

  After the first stop, you continue walking past the Jordanian Mosque, which impressively shows how Grbavica has developed in the last 30 years since the end of the Bosnian War. Your guide will tell you some exciting details about how the social structures in this part of the city have changed in recent years.
