Bijela Tabija-Sarajevo

Bijela Tabija Sarajevo is one of the most beautiful location of Sarajevo, both to take pictures, thanks to its viewpoint and to admire amazing sunsets.

It was a strategic place for the Bosnian army that dominated the east side of Sarajevo. It was one of the fewer points in favor they had. More than 10000 soldiers were under the command of the strongest and humblest general Izet Begovic..

In Bijela Tabija there’s the biggest cemetery of the capital where it is possible to clearly see a sprawl of white tombstones accompanied by a medrese, a school where people learn Arabic language and practice Islam..

The time of prayer is a fascinating thing. You can hear all the mosques of the capital spreading their deep sound through the entire city.

Every year, during the Islamic celebration, it is the most attended place from people and even from the national televisions!.

It had been declared “protected zone”. A real paradise within the city! You can get there without any problem, on foot or by public transport..

Bijela Tabija has been placed under legal protection as an object of cultural and historical heritage and listed under the Protected Monuments.
