Most visits to Bosnia and Herzegovina are trouble-free but visitors should be aware that there is a threat from terrorism. There is also a global risk of indiscriminate terrorist attacks, which could be against civilian targets, including places frequented by foreigners.
Many of the sights and attractions in Bosnia-Herzegovina are connected with the country’s recent and distant past. The famous bridge in Mostar and the fortress on Zec Mountain are examples of this. Other attractions include outdoor sports, noticeably skiing near Sarajevo, which hosted the Winter Olympics in 1984.
