On the pavement of Ferhadija street, people can find an inscription saying “Sarajevo Meeting of Cultures.”
The plate is at the border of the Old City and the modern area, it symbolizes the touch of the two main historic periods that molded the city: the Ottoman and the Austro-Hungarian. The vibe is real, you can feel the difference between the two areas, from the people, the music, and the smell of street food. The East really meets the West here.
