Bosnia and Herzegovina is the heart-shaped country in the heart of Southeast Europe.
Eastern and Western civilizations met here, sometimes clashing, but more often enriching and strengthening each other in the course of its long and fascinating history.
Bosnia offers a big variety of landscapes; green rivers; Ottoman architecture; medieval towns; 4 natural parks; more than 5 waterfalls; a history of war and survival; and a rich traditional culinary.
Bosnian cuisine is balanced between Western and Eastern influences. Bosnian food is closely related to Turkish, Mediterranean and other Balkan cuisines, along with some Central European influence. Many of the traditional dishes have been made from the same recipes for hundreds of years. Most dishes are light, as they are boiled; the sauces are natural, consisting of little more than the natural juices of the vegetables in the dish. Typical ingredients include a mix of vegetables, onions, garlic, mushrooms, dried and fresh beans, plums, milk, paprika and cream called pavlaka and kajmak.
