Stari Most (Old Bridge) over the Neretva River in Mostar (Bosnia and Herzegovina)

The Old Bridge area of the Old City of Mostar, with its exceptional multicultural (pre-Ottoman, eastern Ottoman, Mediterranean and western European) architectural features, and satisfactory interrelationship with the landscape, is an outstanding example of a multicultural urban settlement. The qualities of the site's construction, after the extremely ravaging war damage and the subsequent works of renewal, have been confirmed by detailed scientific investigations.

Stari Most (Old Bridge) over the Neretva River in Mostar (Bosnia and Herzegovina)

The bridge is gone.

The lovers.

Gone.

The friends.

Gone.

The bridge is gone.

...

And the children.

Standing on the sides.

Stones in their hands.

Staring at the place.

Where there was a bridge.
