DOBRO DOŠLI U MOSTAR Igen tager jeg med bus til min næste destination her i Balkan regionen, nordpå fra Kotor i Montenegro til Mostar i den sydlige del af Bosnien og Hercegovina. Grunden til at det lige blev Mostar og dette vandrehjem er en engelsk fyr ved navn Edward… en af de andre gæster, jeg mødte i Kosovo. Det var ham, der anbefalede mig at tage til Mostar og bo på det hyggelige vandrehjem Rooms Deny. Det er en af ​​fordelene ved at bo på vandrerhjem, hvor du snakker med andre rejsende og får gode råd. Der er en flod, der løber gennem Mostar fra nord til syd og deler byen i to meget separate dele. Floden havde stor betydning under krigen DENY ER DEN PERFEKTE TURGUIDE Min vært på ​​vandrerhjemmet, som han har opkaldt det efter sig selv hedder Deny Kadric. Han hentede mig på busstationen, og selvom vandrehjemmet ligger på samme side af floden skal vi køre en omvej ind i den vestlige del af byen, da vi ikke kan køre gennem den gamle bydel. Det gav ham rig mulighed for at lege turguide, mens vi kører gennem byen. Han er en ung mand, som både er snakkesalig, åben og har en enorm viden om sit land og sin by. Da vi ser den ikoniske Stari Most Bro for første gang, spørger han mig, hvad jeg ved om Mostar – udover naturligvis broen. Men jeg må indrømme, at jeg ikke engang vidste noget om broen. Og da det er den mest ikoniske ting ved Mostar, vidste jeg ikke meget. Ikke mere end hvad Edward havde fortalte mig. At det er en smuk lille by med en masse historie. Det med broen og hvorfor den er så vigtig, er noget vi kommer tilbage til senere. Deny er lidt af en type... ikke som de fleste. Og heldigvis. LILLE LAND MED TO NAVNE Der bor 3,8 millioner mennesker i Bosnien-Hercegovina – og det er vigtigt at du siger både Bosnien og Hercegovina, og ikke blot Bosnien. Faktisk er vi slet ikke i Bosnien, som er i den nordlige del af landet. Mostar ligger i den sydlige Hercegovina region og har en befolkning på 113.000. Mostar er Bosnien-Hercegovinas mest splittede by. Begge sider har deres eget nationale teater, posthus og andre separate offentlige kontorer. Bosniske kroater bor på den vestlige side af Neretva-floden og bosniakker bor på den østlige side. Sådan var det under den bosniske krig og sådan er det for det meste også i dag – mere end 25 år efter krigen. Det er sjældent at dem på den ene side har så meget at gøre med dem på den anden side. Deny fortæller mig, at han dog har venner på begge sider, men han er undtagelsen end reglen. MAN SER STADIG AR FRA KRIGEN I MOSTAR Da jeg ankommer til vandrehjemmet, anbefaler Deny, at jeg ser en dokumentarfilm inden jeg hår ud i byen. Dokumentarfilmen Unfinished Business fra BBC blev filmet i 1993 i og omkring Mostar, hvor​ den bosniske krig var på sit højeste. Jeg tager hans råd, og allerede et minut inde i filmen ser vi nogle mænd komme løbende med en trillebør for at hente en gammel mand, der lige var blevet skudt. En trillebør er den bedste måde at få ham til hospitalet i en fart. Den gamle mand var blot gået ud af sit hus for at hente noget vand, da det skete. På hospitalet giver en læge ham hjertemassage i et forsøg på at genoplive ham. Men det var forgæves og det er hjerteskærende, at se hvordan hans kone bryder sammen. Disse første par minutter af dokumentaren sætter på den måde tonen for resten af ​​den. Det er ikke rart at se, men jeg anbefaler, at du ser den. Vi bør alle se en dokumentar som denne og lære af den. Du finder det på RadioVagabond.dk. Bagefter er det surrealistisk at gå rundt i byen, som jeg lige har set som en krigszone. Og jeg kan stadig se ar fra krigen. Mange bygninger er stadig ruiner og der er skudhuller i væggene overalt. STARI MOST BROEN ØDELAGT Belejringen af ​​Mostar blev udkæmpet under den bosniske krig først i 1992 og derefter igen senere i 93-94. Under den første belejring flygtede omkring 90.000 indbyggere fra Mostar ... og mange religiøse bygninger, kulturinstitutioner og broer blev beskadiget eller ødelagt. Mellem juni 93 og april 94, var det Bosniak-koncentrerede Øst-Mostar belejret, hvilket resulterede i mange civile dødsfald, en afskæring af humanitær hjælp, beskadigelse eller ødelæggelse af ti moskeer, og sprængningen af ​​den historiske Stari Most-bro den 9. november 1993. Den kroatiske general Slobodan Praljak blev anset for at være hovedansvarlig for ødelæggelsen af ​​broen og dømt til tyve år bag tremmer. Stari Most (som bogstaveligt talt betyder 'Den Gamle Bro') er også kendt som Mostar Bridge og forbinder de to dele af byen. Det var en smuk osmannisk bro fra det 16. århundrede og den stod i 427 år, indtil den famøse dag i 93. Efter krigen blev et projekt sat i gang for at få den rekonstrueret. Den genopbyggede bro, der ser ud som den gamle, åbnede den 23. juli 2004. Det er nu byens mest ikonisk turistattraktion, fra toppen er der 20 meter ned til floden, og ofte kan du se folk hoppe ned i vandet fra den. MUSEUM OM KRIG OG FOLKEMORD Jeg besluttede mig for at bruge et par timer i 'Museum of War and Genocide Victims'. Det er et lille, men interessant og meget bevægende museum om begivenhederne, der førte til opløsningen af ​​det tidligere Jugoslavien. Den måde, krigens historie forklares på, er ekstremt rørende og ikke for sarte sjæle. Det, som befolkningen i Bosnien- Hercegovinas og især her i Mostar var igennem under krigen, er uhyrligt. De personlige historier er som altid de mest bevægende. Og dem er der masser af. Det er en vigtig del af Bosnien-Hercegovinas og Mostars historie, og enhver, der besøger Mostar, bør besøge museet, for at lære noget og af respekt for ofrene og lokalbefolkningen. Der vises nogle meget chokerende fotos. Der er tre skærme, der hver viser forskellige historier om krigen og koncentrationslejrene. Der er også en hel del at læse, da hver skærm og billede har en historie bag sig. Bevæger du dig ned i underetage kommer du til at se det værste, så hvis har let til tårer – eller hvis du har børn med, vil jeg måske overveje at springe denne del over. Alt i alt er det forfærdeligt at se, hvad der skete, men jeg føler, at det er vigtigt at besøge sådan et museum for at få et klarere overblik over, hvad der skete, og hvorfor det aldrig må ske igen. Der er en del af museet, der taler om krigsforbrydelser – med der er mange billeder af mennesker, der gør noget der stred imod Haag- og Genève-konventionerne. Og det er det, der chokerer mig mest. Hvordan kunne dette ske - med Anden Verdenskrig i frisk erindring? Hvorfor lærte vi ikke noget? Som det står på væggen i museet: “The terror of forgetting is greater than the terror of having too much to remember” Derfor føler jeg, det er vigtigt at besøge The ‘Museum of War and Genocide Victims 1992-1995’, selvom det bestemt ikke er en opløftende oplevelse. 7 FUN FACTS OM BOSNIEN HERZEGOVINA Bosnien-Hercegovina har tilnavnet det "hjerteformede land" fordi landet med lidt go’ vilje har form som et hjerte. Og når du tjekker det på et kort, ville du tro, at Bosnien-Hercegovina er landfast, men hvis du ser lidt nærmere, vil du bemærke, at de har en lille bitte del af landet ud til Adriaterhavet. De har kun cirka 25 kilometers kyststrækning. En af Europas sidste jungler kan findes her. Den ligger på grænsen til Montenegro, hedder Perućica og en af ​​de to resterende jungleskove i Europa. Nogle af træerne her er 300 år gamle, og den uforstyrrede skov er mere end 20.000 år gammel. Bosnien-Hercegovinas har tre officielle sprog: bosnisk, kroatisk og serbisk. De er ret ens, og de forstår allesammen hinanden. Lidt som dansk norsk og svensk ... eller amerikansk, irsk og australsk ... tror jeg. Navnet "Bosnien" kommer fra ordet Bosana, som betyder vand. Hercegovina stammer fra det serbokroatiske udtryk lånt fra tysk, et land regeret af en Herzog – det tyske udtryk for en hertug. De er vilde med kaffe her. Bosnien-Hercegovina har det tiende højeste kaffeforbrug pr. indbygger i verden. Og endelig Mostar har en venskabsby i Danmark: Vejle. HERCEGOVINA TOUR SYD FOR MOSTAR Sammen med en håndfuld af de andre gæster fra vandrehjemmet, tager jeg på en Hercegovina-dagstur med Deny som guide. Han os med med omkring 30 kilometer syd for Mostar. Efter en meget lokal morgenmad tager vi på en vandretur i fantastisk smukke landskaber ned til vandfaldene i Kravica og derefter til Počitelj – en historiske landsby og et friluftsmuseum med en fæstning i bjergene. I middelalderen var det regionens administrative centrum, regeringsby og regionens vestligste punkt, som gav den stor strategisk betydning. Det anslås, at byen og dens bymure blev bygget i 1383. Og den er helt klart et besøg værd. BRUCE LEE STATUE IN MOSTAR Af en eller anden grund er der her i Mostar en statue af kong fu-eksperten Bruce Lee. Statuen var det første offentlige monument med Bruce Lee noget sted i verden og blev afsløret i november 2005. ”Hvorfor” kan man spørge: Ja, ideen kom fra en ungdomsgruppe kaldet Mostar Urban Movement, og de så statuen som "et symbol på loyalitet, dygtighed, venskab og retfærdighed". I en by, der var revet midt over i krig af etniske modsætninger, ser de karate-filmstjerne som en del af deres idé om universel retfærdighed – at de gode altid vinder. De føler, at Bruce Lee repræsenterede en ting, der kunne bygge bro over skelene mellem Mostar-beboerne: "En ting, vi alle har tilfælles, er Bruce Lee", sagde de. Kort efter den blev rejst blev skulpturen vandaliseret, fjernet til reparation og bragt tilbage i slutningen af ​​maj 2013. Både bosniere og kroater havde klaget over, at statuen var en provokation, fordi de troede, at den pegede mod deres område i en kampposition, så da den kom tilbage, drejede de statuen i en neutral retning. HIT THE ROAD JACK Tilbage i Mostar går vi i samlet flok over den gamle bro til vest-siden, til middag og drinks på den ikoniske Black Dog Pub, og synger alle sammen med Hit the Road Jack. Og så er jeg skal jeg ellers selv til at ”hitte the road” igen... og mit næste stop er Kroatien. Jeg hedder Palle Bo, og jeg skal videre.   JEG VIL GERNE HØRE FRA DIG Jeg meget gerne vil høre fra dig, og nu har jeg fået en ny og enkel måde for dig at sende mig en talebesked på.

See pictures here. DOBRO DOŠLI U MOSTAR Again, I go by bus to my next Balkan destination. This time north from Kotor in Montenegro to Mostar in the southern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was one of the other guests at the hostel in Kosovo – an English guy called Edward, that recommended Mostar and Rooms Deny to me. There's a river that runs through Mostar from the north to the south and cuts the city in two halves. Deny, the owner of ‘Rooms Deny', the hostel I'd booked, came to pick me up at the bus station, and even though both the bus station and the hostel are on the eastern side, we're taking a bit of a detour into the western side because cars are not allowed in the old town. That gives Deny time to do his ‘tour guide introduction' to Mostar. DENY IS THE PERFECT TOUR GUIDE My host Deny Kadric is a very open young man and has an impressive knowledge about his country and especially Mostar. As we see the iconic Stari Most Bridge (the Old Bridge) for the first time, Deny asks me what I know about Mostar other than the bridge. But no, I didn't even know about the bridge, and since that's the most iconic thing about Mostar, I didn't know much. Or anything – other than what Edward told me. That it's a quaint little city with a lot of history. We'll get back to this bridge and why it's so important later on in this episode. SMALL COUNTRY WITH TWO NAMES Bosnia and Herzegovina is home to 3.8 million people – and it's important that you say both names. Basically, it's too regions with Bosnia in the north and Herzegovina in the south. In fact, I'm not even in Bosnia. Mostar is in Herzegovina and has a population of 113,000 and is Bosnia and Herzegovina's most divided city. Nowhere is this more evident than in Mostar, where Bosnian Croatians live on the western side of the Neretva River, and Bosniaks on the eastern side. Even to this day, more than 25 years after the war, this is still the case. They rarely go to the other side and interact with the people on the other side. Both sides have their own national theatre, post office, and other separate public services. Deny tells me that he does have friends on both sides, but he's more the exception to the rule. THE SCARS OF THE WAR IN MOSTAR Deny recommended that I took 45 minutes to see a documentary called Unfinished Business in Mostar before I walked out to explore. It's a BBC documentary presented by Jeremy Bowen, filmed in 1993 in and around Mostar at the height of the Bosniak-Croat conflict during the Bosnian War. And I did, and already one minute in we see some guys come running with a wheelbarrow to get an old man that had just been shot. They wanted to rush him to the hospital. He'd just stepped out of his house to get some water when it happened. At the hospital, a doctor gives him CPR in an attempt to revive him. But there was nothing he could do – he was dead on arrival and his old wife breaks down. These first few minutes of the documentary sets the tone for the rest of it. It's heartbreaking but I suggest you see it. We should all see it and learn from it. It's surreal to walk around in the streets of Mostar after seeing them as a war zone. You can still see the scars of the war. Many of the buildings are still in ruins and you see bullet-holes on the walls everywhere. STARI MOST BRIDGE WAS DESTROYED The Siege of Mostar was fought during the Bosnian War first in 1992 and then again later in 93-94. As a result of the first siege around 90,000 residents of Mostar fled … and many religious buildings, cultural institutions, and bridges were damaged or destroyed. Between June 93 and April 94, the besieged Bosniak-concentrated East Mostar, resulting in the deaths of many civilians, a cut off of humanitarian aid, damage or destruction of ten mosques, and then the blowing up of the historic Stari Most bridge on November 9, 1993. Croatian general Slobodan Praljak was deemed the main responsible for the destruction of the bridge and sentenced to twenty years. He was the one who declared that "those stones" (meaning the bridge) had no value. Stari Most Bridge, also known as The Old Bridge and Mostar Bridge, connects the two parts of the city. It was a 16th-century Ottoman bridge and stood for 427 years, until that day in ‘93. After the war, a project was set in motion to reconstruct it; the rebuilt bridge – that looks like the old one opened on 23 July 2004. It's now an iconic tourist attraction. It stands 20 meters over the river and often you can see people jumping of it into the water. MUSEUM OF WAR AND GENOCIDE VICTIMS I decide to spend a few hours at the ‘Museum of War and Genocide Victims 1992-1995'. It's a small but interesting and very moving museum about the events leading up to the breakup of the former Yugoslavia.  The way the history of the war is explained is very moving and extremely touching. What the people of Bosnia and especially Mostar have been through is unimaginable. The personal stories of those who lived through these times are as always, the most moving.  It's an important part of the history of Bosnia Herzegovina and Mostar and anyone visiting it must go to the Museum out of respect for the victims and locals who suffered through this. There are some very graphic shocking photos on display. Also, three TVs each showing different stories about the war and the concentration camps. There is quite a bit to read as each display and picture has a story behind it. On the lower floor this is where the more graphic photos are displayed so if your easily upset – or if you're bringing your kids, I would skip this part.  All in all, it's horrific to see what happened, but I feel it's an important visit to get a clearer view of what happened and why it should never happen again. There's a part of the museum talking about war crimes – with so many pictures of people doing something against the Hague and Geneva Conventions. And that's what bothers me the most. How could this happen – with the second World War in recent memory. Didn't we learn anything? As it says on the wall in the museum: “The terror of forgetting is greater than the terror of having too much to remember” That's why I feel it's important to visit places like this, even though it's not an upbeat uplifting experience. 6 FUN FACTS ABOUT BOSNIA HERZEGOVINA Bosnia Herzegovina is nicknamed the “Heart-Shaped Land” due to the country's slight heart shape. When you look at a map, you would think that Bosnia Herzegovina is landlocked but if you look very closely you will notice that they have the smallest little panhandle which touches the Adriatic Sea for only about 25 kilometres or 15 miles. One of Europe's last jungles can be found here. Situated on the border of Montenegro, Perućica is one of two remaining jungles forests in Europe. Some of the trees here are 300 years old, and the undisturbed forest vintage dates back 20,000 years.  Bosnia has three official languages: Bosnian, Croatian, and Serbian. They are pretty similar and they all understand each other. Kinda like Danish Norwegian and Swedish… or American, Irish and Australian… I think. The name “Bosnia” comes from an Indo-European word Bosana, which means water. Herzegovina stems from the Serbo-Croatian term borrowed from German, Hercegovina, a land ruled by a Herzog – the German term for a duke. They like coffee here… Bosnia Herzegovina has the tenth highest coffee consumption per capita in the world.   HERZEGOVINA TOUR SOUTH OF MOSTAR With a group of other guests from the hostel, I go on a day-trip in beautiful Herzegovina with Deny as the tour guide. He takes us about 30 kilometers (19 mi) south of Mostar. After a local breakfast, we go on a hike in some astonishing landscapes to the waterfalls in Kravica and then to Počitelj – the historic village and an open-air museum with a fortress in the mountains. In the middle ages, it was the administrative center and center of governance of the county, and its westernmost point, which gave it major strategic importance. It is supposed that the fortified walled town was built in 1383 and well worth a visit. BRUCE LEE STATUE IN MOSTAR For some reason here in Mostar there's a statue of kong-fu expert Bruce Lee. The statue was the first public monument to Bruce Lee anywhere in the world and was unveiled in November 2005. Why you may ask: The idea came from a youth group called Mostar Urban Movement, and they saw the statue as “a symbol of "loyalty, skill, friendship and justice." In a city that had been torn in war by ethnic divisions, they see the dynamic movie star as a part of their idea of universal justice – that the good guys can win. They feel that Bruce Lee represented one thing that could bridge the divides between Mostar residents: "One thing we all have in common is Bruce Lee" they said. Shortly afterwards the sculpture was vandalized, removed for repairs and brought back at the end of May 2013. Both Bosnians and Croats had complained that the statue was a provocation because they thought it was pointed towards their area in a fighting stance, so its creators rotated the statue to face a neutral direction.   HIT THE ROAD JACK Back in Mostar we go walk across the Old Bridge to the west side, for dinner and drinks at the iconic Black Dog Pub, and we all sing along to Hit the Road Jack. And then it's time for me to hit the road myself, and my next stop is Croatia. My name is Palle Bo and I gotta keep moving.     I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU First, I want to mention that I would love to hear from you and now there's a new and simple way for you to send me a voice message. It's a cool little web-based app called Tellbee and all you have to do is here: TALK TO ME and talk. Tell me where you are and what you're doing when you listen to this. It's super simple and one of the cool things is that you can listen to it and redo it if you're not happy with it – before you click send. I get a small soundbite I can play on the show and it's always wonderful to hear from you guys. You can off course also just fill out the form under contact on the website.

Continua la drammatica vicenda di Mostar e del suo ponte, da sempre divisivo, che schiera su due fronti contrapposti croati bosniaci e mussulmani. Sullo sfondo si muove un personaggio carismatico e profondamente istrionico. Si chiama Slobodan Praljak, è un generale con velleità artistiche e, nella vicenda legata a Mostar, giocherà un ruolo chiave. La sua parabola di lucida aggressività lo porta a compiere gesti estremi, che si ripetono negli anni, anche dopo il dramma che si consuma in città. L'ultimo atto riguarda la sua vita… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
