 The City of Sarajevo

Sarajevo (pronounced Sarayevo, Serbian Cyrillic: Сарајево, formerly Bosna Serai) is the capital and the largest city of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Before the war, the last census in 1991 estimated the population at 429,672 inhabitants; today the city has around 700,000 inhabitants.

The city is considered one of the most important cities in the Balkans and its history is particularly rich since its creation by the Ottomans in 1461. The city was the place of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria  by Gavrilo Princip, which marked the beginning of the First World War. More recently, it hosted the Winter Olympics of 1984 and was besieged during the war in Bosnia - Herzegovina in the years 1990. In the city the war has left many traces of impacts on the facades of all the buildings, some of which were only provisionally repaired or patched up.  The signs of blasts in the tarmac of the streets are carefully preserved as a sign of remembrance. The 1992- 1995 siege of Sarajevo, which lasted more than a thousand days and cost nearly 10 thousands deaths, is also ubiquitous in conversations. Sixteen years after the return of peace Sarajevo, an economically disaster and politically divided city, remains in poverty, an interminable aftermath of the war. And yet was never visited by so many tourists as in 2011. Crossing the river Miljacka, the city is part of the Sarajevo Canton, one of ten that make up Bosnia and Herzegovina.
