hi, sarajevan here 👋 the things you referred to as "bloody hands" are called "sarajevske ruže" (= "sarajevo roses") and they are marks left on the streets by mortar shell explosions during the siege of sarajevo in the 90s, later filled with red resin as a memorial to those who lost their lives in those attacks.
Hey man, I am glad to see you in my city. If you are still here and not under the weather/feeling better, holla at me we can get a coffee someplace to get to know each other better and the culture. Friendly regards :D
3:39 actually, it was the 8th European city to hold the Winter Olympics.Before Sarajevo, there were Chamonix/France in 1924, St.Moritz/Switzerland in 1928 and 1948, Garmisch Partenkirchen/Germany in 1936, Oslo/Norway in 1952, Cortina D'Ampezzo/Italy in 1956, Insbruck/Austria in 1964 an 1976, and Grenoble/France in 1968.
Hope you are feeling better. Sarajevo is known as Jerusalem of the West. In near proximity to one another there are Ortodox Church, Catholic Church Muslim Mosque, and Jewish Synagogue.
Pojo big up your nice clean self.😅 I can see you're on a new adventure and straight away dived into the deep history of Romeo and Juliet in Sarajevo. I like your passion for historical research where you travel and good journalism.
The red color on the concrete is the Sarajevo Rose, which is a monument. This is the place where a grenade fell that killed someone. You can see many Sarajevo roses on the streets walking around.
@bedtrip78 Grenade. Because when grenade falls on ground it forms a small crater, and when it falls on the concrete it forms a hole with many small holes around it, which looks like a rose.
Actually the water tap you drink from that says once you drink from it you will return again to Sarajevo it is not the one at Sebilj but rather the tap at the stone wall of Gazi Husrefbeg mosque.
Charging ur videos to catch up!! And ottomans influenced that area and Middle East for like 500-1000 years. U will find many communities that have ties and what not to those times. Why u see so many mosques and Turkish restaurants etc. I need to catch up :)))
Sweets are obviously of Turkish origin and inspiration, but we use way different and milder spices in general. Same goes for cevapi. For most part our meat dishes are boiled, fried or roasted only in their natural juices and vegetables, not too many strong spices like with Turkish cuisine.
The hand splattered “boxes” on the road are where the Serbian soldiers during the 90s threw Grenades and offed civilians. It’s a memorial plaque of some sort for the victims.
The name Sarajevo is a Turkish name for the Croatian village of Vrhbosna that was captured by the Ottoman Turks when they invaded Bosnia in 1463 AD. In the 19th century Austria-Hungary pushed out the Ottoman Turks from Bosna and Sarajevo and that is why you have Habsburg era architecture in Sarajevo.
@@snooze123-f3o the people of sarajevo have a single story about it? because there are also inhabitants of Sarajevo who most likely would not agree with you in your interpretation of the facts, probably… but since you present yourself as if you were on the bridge that day, can you tell us how it really happened?
@@Edmond_Dantes_14 please do ask any of the cca. 450,000 residents of Sarajevo or Canton of Sarajevo what they think of the Serb siege of the city 92-95, I am really curious what you will get as an answer.

It was the first time the Olympic games were held in a city under communism, tho.
Hope you are feeling better.

To see the line in the road was very interesting, the difference was unique. Sad so many conflicts within the area and some not so long ago.
nice video, love the inside view of these places

Grenade or snipers ?!?!?

Hello everyone
Hope you feel Feel better soon.
Pojo history teacher🤣🫶
Welcome to Yugoslavia 🙂 Everyone living together in Sarajevo 🙂
This is Bosnia not yugoslavia
Never heard of this place.. thanks for showing the architecture. Eastern Europe barely gets love from vloggers. Stay warm gang!
...Yugoslavia before the War !!!

I much prefer the Eastern side of Sarajevo with its history and it has real charm, unlike the Western side which is all marketing and gimmickry
aj ne seri.nije te stid ovako nesto pisat.
That's not the true story
What’s the true story then
Yes, please enlighten us Tamara, we the people of Sarajevo would love to hear what you have to say :)
