One of the country's oldest continuously inhabited places — the UNESCO Radimlja stećci necropolis, an Ottoman old town on the Bregava river, the Begovina residential complex and a hilltop fortress. Deeply historic and little-visited.
Why go
- the stećci
- layered Ottoman town
- the Bregava's mills.
an easy detour off the Mostar–Trebinje road that most tourists skip — well worth the stop.
