Old Bridge<\/b><\/h2>\n

If you heard about Mostar<\/strong> than you probably heard about Old Bridge<\/strong><\/a> too. A beautiful sight<\/a> to see which amazes everyone who comes to Mostar. The bridge was built in 16<\/strong><\/span>th<\/strong> century<\/strong> by Ottoman Empire<\/strong> but it was destroyed in the Croat\u2013Bosniak War in 1993. Original bridge was built by famous Ottoman architect Mimar Hajrudin<\/strong> who built many of the key Sultan\u2019s buildings in Istanbul<\/strong>. After it was destroyed, bridge was rebuilt as an original and opened on 23 July 2004.<\/span><\/p>\n

The bridge, as a symbol of the city<\/strong>, is located in the center of the Mostar<\/a>. It is crossing the beautiful river Neretva<\/strong> and connecting two different parts of the city of Mostar. The bridge is surrounded by beautiful Ottoman towers<\/strong>, old buildings and Muslim mosques. They create unique sight to see<\/a> that you need to experience it to understand it. Old Bridge is one of the most popular<\/strong> objects for professional and amateur photographers to take pictures off. But words and pictures alone can\u2019t bring you the real experience<\/a> of seeing it in person and enjoying it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Old Bridge<\/a> is also known by traditional annual diving competition<\/strong>. It is organized every year in mid-summer (end of July<\/strong>) and it has been done more than 480 times. It is traditional<\/strong> <\/a>for the brave men of the town to leap from the 24m<\/strong> bridge into the river Neretva. As the Neretva is very cold river and the gap between the river and the bridge is 24 meters, leaping from it is very risky. <\/strong>People<\/a> who want to attempt it must be very brave<\/a> to do it.<\/strong> But don\u2019t worry, if you want to see people<\/a> jumping from it you don\u2019t need to come on that specific day when competition is held. You can see professional jumpers leaping from it almost every day<\/strong> on the summer<\/a>. Besides that, since 2015 Old Bridge has become the tour stop<\/a> in very famous competition the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
