    The bridge received its name because it connected the right bank of the Miljacka with the Catholic quarter of the city, which was informally called "Latinluk" ("place/domain of the Latins", loosely "Latin Quarter") in Ottoman times. Judging by its foundations, it is the oldest among the preserved bridges in the city. The census of the Sanjak of Bosnia from 1541 mentions the bridge on this spot, built by the leather-worker Hussein, son of Sirmerd.This first bridge seems to have been made of wood, because the court record from 1565 witness that the stone bridge was built here by eminent citizen of Sarajevo Ali Ajni-Beg.

    Sarajevo is known as Europe's Jerusalem, and you can walk to the Grand Mosque near the old town hall. One of the shooting locations of the former Yugoslavia film "Walter Defending Sarajevo" is the Grand Mosque. The watchmaker went to the secret joint site to cover Walter. Sacrifice at the Grand Mosque. We also went to the blacksmith shop in Walter's Defense of Sarajevo and bought a handmade Bosnian coffee maker. ​

    万邦风物万邦风物

    [Sarajevo City Hall] Located on the banks of the Miriyats River in the city center. In front of the door is a square of Jiaotong University, we may have very few people in the whole square because of the early people who went. There is an empty Sarajevo steel ring in front of the city hall. But this day because the light can not see the letters, it is necessary to light the lights at night to clearly display the font appearance, become a landmark in Sarajevo. The river in front of the door is not wide, the river is very deep, but there is almost no water inside. There may be more water during the rainy season. It may be a bustling area in the city center. There is a stone arch bridge every five or six hundred meters on the river. There are at least six or seven stone arch bridges in sight. Along the river, there are three or four old buildings, there are often graffiti on the walls, and there are some old bullet holes. It seems that this is not a business district, and there are almost no shops nearby. But because it is very close to the Latin Bridge and the old town, it is also a must-check in for tourism.

    The tour guide said that the Yellow Fortress (Figure 2) is no longer open to the public. ​We arrived nearby and climbed up to overlook the entire city of Sarajevo. There are many densely packed tombstones (Figure 1), reminding Sarajevo of the wars it has experienced in the past.

    Here you can see traces of the First World War. Prince Sonandi's car is still on site. It is really nostalgic. If you have the chance, you must stay in Bosnia and Herzegovina for two more days before leaving.

    The old streets are full of various specialty shops, bakeries that have just baked in the afternoon, and street cafes. The locals live a comfortable life and seem to have forgotten the civil war that ended only 20 years ago.

    Recording history reminds us all the time not to learn from those greedy humans who cause pain. The scars of war are too obvious, and the whole city is reminding you of the cruel past.
