Bosnia and Herzegovina boasts several historic landmarks, many dating back to the Ottoman period. Perhaps most famous is the Baščaršija bazaar in Sarajevo, a surviving Ottoman-era marketplace and a hub for artisanship and tourism.
The country is also home to Perućica, one of the last remaining primeval forests in Europe, which is located in Bosnia’s Sutjeska National Park.
Although several major rivers run through the country, it is primarily mountainous, home much of the Dinaric Alps.
Bosnia and Herzegovina is a member of the United Nations and the Council of Europe. It has European Union candidate status and participates in the NATO Partnership for Peace.
