Sarajevo is a diverse city, a mix of east and west, the mix of religions. You can still observe the remaining scars of the Yugoslavian War, but otherwise, it’s a vivid and colorful place to visit, surrounded by beautiful mountains.

Check this list of our favorite spots outside of the Old Town to ensure you don’t miss out anything during your holiday. Guaranteed you will enjoy visiting these sight and nature trails. The list starts with the easily accessible sights and ends with the best day trips you can do from Sarajevo.

Marina Barrage is a large green area with a sea barrage that makes the Bay Area calm and pleasant for leisure activities, and itself offers the best opportunity for kite flying in Singapore. It is also an ideal place for picnics and photoshoots with the Marina Bay Sands, the Singapore Eye, and the Bay with its skyscrapers at the background. It is one of the off the beaten path attractions close to the city center.

What to Wear in Finland During Winter? Tips for Surviving the Cold Weather in Lapland

You would miss the snow and the northern lights, just to mention a few. I will share my tips on clothing that helped me survived my first (and every) winter in the Nordics.
