Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina — One of Europe's most unique cities — a place where Ottoman mosques, Austro-Hungarian architecture, Orthodox churches, and Catholic cathedrals stand within walking distance of each other. Known as the -Jerusalem of Europe- for its religious diversity, Sarajevo was also where World War I began, with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914. The city's resilience through the 1990s siege — the longest in modern warfare — makes it one of history's most extraordinary urban stories.
