The bus hums out of Split before dawn and the Adriatic recedes into olive-grey hills; by midmorning the Neretva begins to call — a cool, emerald ribbon that seems to dare you to follow it east. Arriving in Počitelj, narrow stone lanes and a low fortress feel older than the borders drawn on maps, and the guide's footsteps echo where Ottoman craftsmen once worked. In Mostar, the Old Bridge arcs cleanly over the river; people still jump, cameras still click, and the water below keeps pulling at visitors with a steady, ancient patience.
