Apart from Bosnia, which has been covered by snow for several days, most of Herzegovina is also under a white blanket.
In Konjic, the temperature of two degrees Celsius was measured at noon, while sunshine was good for video enthusiasts to record the most beautiful landscapes of Herzegovina.
In the video, you can see the panorama of the snow-covered Konjic and the beauty of the Neretva River and Borac Lake in a new 360 video where you choose the perspective from which you will be watching.
Konjic is attractive far more by its abundance of natural beauty that completely surrounds the town. The Neretva River running through the centre and Prenj Mountain hovering behind dominate Konjic.
The old town is quite nice to stroll through. The center of town is rather pleasant too, with stunning views in every direction. The main street is often closed to vehicle traffic and is filled with the young and old walking, hanging out in café’s or selling their wares along the riverside markets. People in Konjic are very easy going and friendly so feel free to ask someone for directions or to engage in some small talk.
One of the not-to-be-missed attractions is certainly Kamena cuprija (Stone Bridge) built in 1682. It was destroyed during World War II, but was rebuilt in 2009. Since the early 1900s, Konjic has come to be known for its woodcarvers. The craft developed a commercial dimension during the Austro-Hungarian occupation in the early 20th century. Before World War II Konjic had a couple of dozen woodcarving businesses, who sold their elaborately-carved heirloom furniture and boxes within the Austro- Hungarian empire and beyond.
