In the highest Bosnian village of Lukomir, which is 1,495 meters above the sea level, Muslims welcomed the Ramadan Bayram holiday on Bjelasnica Mountain.
After the long winter, the residents of Lukomir returned to their village and worshiped the largest Muslim holiday.
The village consists of about 50 houses where 20 families live.
The village mosque was built in 1969. This village, located on the slopes of Bjelasnica Mountain, which is about 50 kilometers from the capital Sarajevo.
The Statehood Day of BiH is one of those holidays that at the same time shed light on the idea of the country projected in ZAVNOBIH and what we see today. The Statehood Day is a reminder of the eternal struggle between the ideal and reality, desire and possibility.
