Bosnia & Herzegovina

Bosnia & Herzegovina is the long name for a country spread over only 50 000 km². Northern and central part of the land is called Bosnia, and the name probably originates from ancient Indo-European word “Bosana” meaning water, which is plentiful in Bosnia. Southern region spreads around the ancient Hum, which was ruled by Herceg Stjepan Kosača, and named Herzegovina when it was conquered by the Ottomans.

Maybe it’s more important for the visitors nowadays that Bosnia & Herzegovina is a astonishingly beautiful country with a vast number of natural landscapes, cultures, tradition and especially people. According to the old cliché “the people make the place” – Bosnia & Herzegovina can be proud of its hospitality, and treating guests like family. And it is known that family is carried in the heart.
