Things to do in Capljina

Blagaj is located at the source of the Buna river, near Mostar. It represents a valuable sacral-residential building of Islamic architecture in Bosnia and Herzegovina, with very pronounced features that arose from the influence of the Baroque on Ottoman architecture. The Commission for the Preservation of National Monuments, at its session held from December 6 to 11, 2003 in Sarajevo, made a decision to declare Tekija in Blagaj a national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Počitelj is a populated place in the town of Čapljina, Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is located on the left bank of the Neretva River, on the main road from Mostar to Metković, in the north of the town of Čapljina. Its historical urban center dates back to the 14th century and is a protected national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Kravica waterfall is a favorite Herzegovinian picnic spot and summer swimming spot. 3 kilometers downstream from the village of Hrašljani, between the villages of Studenaca and Zvirić, the Trebižat river falls from a height of 28 meters, creating a beautiful natural amphitheater 120 meters wide. This natural show has been attracting many nature lovers for years, and in the summer months it offers rest and entertainment for all lovers of swimming and activities on the river. Tours are relaxed and our goal is for guests to enjoy their trip.
