Note: Disbursements may differ from financing due to exchange rate fluctuations at the time of disbursement. Service delivery problems in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BH) are compounded by the lingering after-effects of the conflict Public Disclosure Authorized that left vast portions of basic infrastructure destroyed or severely damaged. A case that vividly illustrates the problem is waste water collection and treatment in the city of Sarajevo. A Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) was built close to the confluence of the Miljacka and Bosna Rivers in the early 1980s on the occasion of the 1984 Winter Olympics. Construction of the plant was supported by the World Bank-financed Sarajevo Water Supply and Sewerage Project (Loan 1263-YU), which closed in December 1982. However, the plant was extensively damaged in the spring of 1992 at the outset of the conflict, during which the sewer network was also destroyed in various places. Since the end of the conflict in 1995, the WWTP has been largely out of commission with only minimal conservation works carried out to prevent further deterioration. As a result, virtually all of the city‟s waste water is discharged into the Miljacka and Bosna Rivers without any treatment, causing severe pollution of the rivers and impacting the communities downstream of the discharge point.

Ljubljana They say that Ljubljana is Europe in miniature as it is situated at the dynamic crossroads of the Germanic, Roman and Slavic worlds. It connects the prehistory of pile-dwellers with the 2000-year-old Roman Emona, the medieval centre below the castle hill with rich Baroque façades, the beauties of Art Nouveau with the creations of Jože Plečnik, significant architect and urbanist of Europe.

  • Plečnik's Bridges in Ljubljana
    6722564 Plečnik's Bridges in Ljubljana Ana Porok Curator of Architecture and Design / Plečnik House, Museum and Galleries of Ljubljana, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia Abstract The Slovenian architect Jože Plečnik (1872–1957) left a significant mark on three European capital cities: Vienna, Prague, and especially his native city of Ljubljana. He worked there from 1921 until his death and largely realised his vision of a city transformed into the national capital based on Classical models. Thanks to Plečnik’s work, the capital city of Slovenia as a whole is a work of art in terms of urban planning and architecture. It is one of the few cities that have been so profoundly marked by a single architect. Plečnik’s Ljubljana features a land axis and a water axis. The land axis runs from his own house in Trnovo across Trnovo Bridge, along Emonska Street and Vegova Street to the city centre with Congress Square and Zvezda Park. Plečnik’s plans for the water axis encompassed designs for the Ljubljanica River embankments at Trnovski pristan, the Gradaščica River outflow, the Ljubljanica embankments in the city centre and designs for Cobblers’ Bridge, Triple Bridge, the main market with unrealised Butchers' Bridge and the river banks down to Ljubljanica Lock Gate. Wherever possible, Plečnik built bridges so as to connect the medieval city at the foot of the Castle Hill with the well-arranged squares on the left bank, and to open views towards the river.He also often respectfully preserved old architecture and incorporated it into a new composition. By re-designing river banks and bridges, and thoughtfully placing plantings intended as important architectural features, Plečnik gave a Mediterranean flavour to the city alongside the Ljubljanica River.

  • Beyond Your Dreams Beyond Your Dreams
    Beyond your dreams Beyond your dreams Destınatıon BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA Bosnıa & Herzegovina Craggily beautiful Bosnia and Herzegovina is most intriguing for its East-meets-West atmosphere born of blended Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian histories. Many international visitors still associate the country with the heartbreaking civil war of the 1990s, and several attractions focus on the horrors of that era. But today, visitors will likely remember the country for its deep, unassuming human warmth, its beautiful mountain scapes and its numerous medieval castle ruins. Apart from modest Neum it lacks beach resorts, but easily compensates with cascading rafting rivers, waterfalls and bargain-value skiing in its mostly mountainous landscapes. Major drawcards are the reincarnated historic centres of Sarajevo and Mostar, counterpointing splendid Turkish-era stone architecture with quirky bars, inviting street- terrace cafes and a vibrant arts scene. And there's so much more to discover in the largely rural hinterland, all at prices that make the country one of Europes best-value destinations. Beyond your dreams How to get there? By plane Sarajevo Airport is in the suburb of Butmir and is relatively close to the city centre. There is no direct public transportation Some of the other airlines which operate regular (daily) services into Sarajevo By train Train services across the country are slowly improving once again, though speeds and frequencies are still low. Train services available to & from Crotia, Hungary and Serbia. By bus Buses are plentiful in and around Bosnia. Most international buses arrive at the main Sarajevo bus station (autobuska stanica) which is located next to the railway station close to the centre of Sarajevo.
