Vidikovac

Kazandžiluk is one of Sarajevo’s oldest and most recognizable streets and it used to be part of the much larger Kazandžijska Čaršija.
Sarajevo’s metalworking čaršija first formed in the first half of the 16th century (sometime after 1528) on land belonging to the wealthy artisan and goatherder, Sagrakči Hajji Mahmud, who is best remembered for building the mosque on Ulomljenica St.
Kazandžiluk takes its name from the kazandžijas, master metalworkers and coppersmiths who first started producing kettles for the army and then later began making other copper vessels and items for everyday use (ewers, pitchers, coffee pots, metal table tops, trays). At the height of Ottoman Sarajevo’s “Golden Age”, coppersmiths were producing around a hundred different kinds of items.
Nowadays, Sarajevo coppersmiths offer a far more limited selection, but Kazandžiluk, with its irresistible charm, continues to attract a lot of attention, especially from tourists, who can be found bustling along this street nearly every season of the year.

The place where river Bosna begins, this beautiful park is located at the bottom of mountain Igman. The road to the park is called Velika Aleja (the Great Alley).

The alley is made up of 726 plane trees (platanus jarro plane) planted in 2 rows in 1892, as well as dozens of wild chestnut trees planted in 1888. This green “tunnel” has always been a tourist attraction and a sort of natural monument. Visitors arrive by a walk, a carriage ride or by car.
