The tour begins in the pulse of Sarajevo — narrow streets opening to concrete canvases, modernist blocks stamped by decades of political change and the worn stone alleys of Baščaršija. Your guide leads you past the Parrot Building’s bold colors and up toward Trebević, where the 1984 Olympic bobsleigh track watches the city like an unfinished mural.
