On the Miljacka, Sarajevo
Pictures by Photoglob Co.
A stone arch bridge crosses the rushing turquoise Miljacka in this hand-coloured photochrom of Sarajevo from about 1895, with a slender minaret and red-roofed houses climbing the hill behind. Sarajevo is often called the Jerusalem of Europe, because its mosques, churches and synagogues stand a short walk apart. For a traveler, or someone with roots in Bosnia.
