Step into a blend of nature, spirituality, and heritage on this half-day tour to Blagaj Tekija and the Buna River. Just a short drive from Mostar, Blagaj is home to one of the most iconic sites in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the 16th-century Dervish Monastery (Tekija), dramatically located at the source of the Buna River, under towering cliffs.
This tour is ideal for travelers seeking a peaceful cultural escape, photogenic scenery, and insight into Sufi mysticism and Ottoman-era architecture.
The Stari Most (Old Bridge), which stands alone in beauty and elegance, crosses the River Neretva in a high arch, and is therefore referred to as the petrified crescent.
