71k

71000 is a postcode of a certain city located at the crossroads between the East and the West, at the crossroads of religions, nations and cultures. The name of the city is Sarajevo.

Sarajevo. My home town. A place you can love and a place you can hate, usually at the same time, but a place that will definitely not leave you indifferent. There is an old saying here that who ever once drinks water from Bascarsija (an old part of Sarajevo), will always come back to it. And usually the saying comes true.

I know veryone of us loves the places we were born in, but Sarajevo... Sarajevo's a special kind of love. The kind of love you can only experience by walking through its streets, by listening to the church bells and prayer calls from the mosques, by inhaling the smells of it's delicious cuisine and by drinking that mysterious water from Bascarsija. I dare you to come here and walk that walk, taste that food and drink that water from Bascarsija. I dare you to leave a piece of your heart here and always come back to it.
