What To Expect

Mehmed Karadoz Moschee

Your journey begins at the most monumental Islamic structure in Herzegovina, completed in 1557 by the master architect Mimar Sinan. Meeting Point: Your tour guide will be waiting for you directly in front of the main entrance of the mosque (on Braće Fejića street). What to see: Before you head off, take a moment to admire the massive 10-meter wide dome and the 35-meter tall minaret—the highest in the region. Pro Tip: If you arrive early, you can climb the minaret for a stunning panoramic view of the Neretva valley to get your bearings.

Meydan Square & Sinan Pasha Mosque A short walk south brings you to the Meydan, the historic assembly square. Here stands the Sinan Pasha Mosque (also known as Atik Mosque), the city's oldest mosque, originally built in 1506. The Vibe: This area is actually first neighbourhood of Mostar, urban nucleus of the city. It was the original center of Mostar before the "Old Bridge" area became the primary hub. Historical Note: The mosque was sadly destroyed in 1949 but was painstakingly reconstructed and reopened in 2014, symbolizing the city's rebirth.
