Christian Old Town Sarajevo
The old town of Sarajevo also has a Christian/Western part. The buildings are newer - nineteenth century - and full of ornamentation. There are also markings on the ground. See the photo of the red splashes? That is where a mortar fell. The number of red spots is the number of people who died because of it.

Bombed Out Police Station
This is the site the city view photos were taken from. As you can see, it is totally rundown and in need of the mercy of the wrecking ball. One piece of graffiti I found interesting was the bit of conflict from Moldova - "Moldova is Romania." Very odd to see that in the Balkans! You'd think the Balkans would have enough of their own problems.
