BOSNIA: The Country Europe Pretends Doesn't Exist | 4K Travel Documentary

Bosnia sits closer to Vienna than Vienna sits to Rome, yet Europe keeps filing it somewhere else. People have lived on this land without a single break for more than a hundred thousand years. It has its own primeval forest, one of only two left on the continent. It has around a thousand brown bears, four hundred wolves, and a blind cave salamander that lives for a century in total darkness. It has sixty thousand medieval tombstones standing in open fields, carved for Catholic, Orthodox, and Bosnian Church dead alike, side by side, under the same symbols. And in the old heart of Sarajevo there is a line set into the pavement where the Ottoman street becomes a Viennese one in a single step. In this documentary, discover the medieval kingdom that answered to neither Rome nor Constantinople, the charter written in 1189 that Bosnians treat as a birth certificate, the highest village in the country, and the white limestone arch at Mostar that was cut twice from the same quarry, four centuries apart. Take a breath. Stay a while. ▶ See More Travel Documentaries:    • VENICE: The City the Sea Is Slowly Taking ...      • FUKUSHIMA: What 15 Years Without People Di...   ▶ Subscribe:    / @whereonearth4k   #Bosnia #TravelDocumentary #Documentary #WhereOnEarth #Balkans #Sarajevo
