Sarajevo's historic bazaar and cultural heart, established by the Ottomans in the 15th century along the Miljacka River. Its cobblestone lanes are alive with the aromas of sizzling ćevapi and traditional Bosnian coffee brewed in copper dzezvas. At the center stands the iconic wooden Sebilj fountain in Ottoman pseudo-Moorish style, surrounded by the 16th-century Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque and coppersmith alleys.
