14.4.2008 - Sarajevo

10:00

On the second day, I went to Trebevic according to the visitor guide to tourist.

At there, I could have a grand view oversee the whole Sarajevo.  The Chinese name of the city - 薩拉熱窩 describes the landscape.  The city is surrounded by mountains.

I took a taxi but the taxi driver was very nervous.  It took him quite a while to look for a number, made phone call and handed over the cell phone to me asking me to talk to the other side.  I then realized that there was no restaurant or anything at the hill top.  I could only ask him to drop me off when there was any viewing spot that I could have a look of the whole city.

The trip cost nearly all my cash in Sarajevo currency (~HKD120).  After that, I needed to walk all the way down the hill.  Actually, a nice driver offered me a lift back to the city but I turned down his offer.  I'd rather like to have a walk around before going back to the city.

Tall or modern buildings could only be found at the left-hand side of the picture.

The summer submit.  This is the picture as printed on the visitor guide that I thought it's just like the peak at Hong Kong.  On the contrary, I could rarely find a visitor there.

As it was the frotline at war and many ruins would still be seen.

Warning sign cold be seen as there were still mines yet to be uncovered.

It was a really nice place to live.  You could see cottages with herding farms, snowing mountains at the far side.

I needed to find my way back to the city centre.  Thanks the help of the locals pointed me the way, though they did not speak English.  After long walks,  I finally caught this bus and got to another torist spot at Ilidza.
