Visegrad
Višegrad, a Town That Inspired a Nobel Prize Novelist
August 31, 2014
Višegrad is a city located in Bosnia, close to the Serbian boarder. The Drina river flows through Višegrad, providing the city with a beautiful scenery, in addition to the stunning hills that surround the city. Višegrad is a city I would recommend visiting to anyone who is in the area, or who is a close drive away to make a day trip (that is what I did).

After walking around Andrićgrad, we walked along the banks of the Drina to capture some beautiful pictures, and to walk across the Drina Bridge. While on the bridge, a man approached us for a boat tour of the city, to which we agreed. The boat tour was supposed to be a half an hour ride about the history of Višegrad. In reality, it ended up being the love life history of the captain. It was entertaining nonetheless and it was a great way to see the city from afar. Not to mention the ride was pretty cheap ($11CAD for the three of us).

Overall, I had a great time in Višegrad. I had great company, the weather was gorgeous, and the city is one that tops my list of places to visit in Former Yugoslavia.
