Sarajevo

Our next stop was Sarajevo- B&H's capital and another city most people still associate with war. History buffs out there will also know that it was here in 1914 that a young Serbian guy assassinated the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, precipitating World War I.

Our first few of Sarajevo was along 'Sniper Alley', where civilians would often fall victim to gunfire from the Yugoslav army up in the hills- The yellow building is the Holiday Inn, from where most journalists covered the war

Moonrise over the hills that enclose the city

Bosnian sweets - not so distant relations to Turkish delight

Sarajevo's hills are hard on the legs

A young boy playing with his toy gun at one of the hillside cemeteries- often, the gravestones of the entire cemetry will have the same year of death

The 'Latin Bridge', where history changed - looking across to the spot where Gavrilo Princip shot Franz Ferdinand

A plaque now marks the place where the assassination occured

Sarajevo goulash, complete with fresh dumplings- a real treat
