Mostar bridge other side, Bosnia and Herzegovina
Mostar & Blue Hour

Earlier I posted a view of the famous Mostar bridge, taken from the opposite side, from the terrace of the mosque. This view is taken from another bridge, and is the more classic one, but the growing shrubbery is encroaching on the view and reflection. As a result I believe the other one works better, however this one has the benefit of the included minaret. Here is the former one so you can see the difference: www.flickr.com/photos/adelheids-pictures/39911420475.

The original bridge was destroyed during the Bosnian war, but after the war the bridge was proudly rebuilt using stones from the same quarry and only techniques as they had been used before. It remains a UNESCO world heritage site.
