#BiHCoolTura: One-of-a-kind journey across Bosnia and Herzegovina
#BiHCoolTura, a one-of-a-kind road trip across Bosnia and Herzegovina for young people, finished today in Banja Luka. This unique project of the European Union was an exploring and experience-gathering opportunity for a group of 20 young people from all over Bosnia and Herzegovina in the abundance of cultural, historical and natural heritage of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The 7-day inspiring tour was also an excellent opportunity for young people to network and create lasting friendships.
The tour kicked off in Sarajevo, where the youth first visited the EU Office in BiH, to discuss issues relevant to the EU accession and how this process addresses issues of importance for youth.
After Sarajevo, the trip continued to Konjic, where they explored Tito’s bunker, and then headed to Mostar to visit the Old Bridge and many other city’s historical landmarks. The next stops were Stolac, Neum and Jajce, cities with a rich history and natural beauty.
The road trip continued with a two-day visit to Banjaluka, where they visited the Kastel fortress and the city as well as an ethno village of Ljubačka dolina, near Banjaluka.
During the road trip, workshops on media literacy and photography were held with a professional photographer, giving young people the opportunity to learn how to think critically about media content and how to take professional photos.
