Počitelj is a village in the south of Bosnia and Herzegovina about 10km from Mostar.
It is a UNESCO site and boasts a long history as a fortified city playing a strategic role during the medieval period and also under the Austro-Hungarian period.
During the Ottoman occupation, however, the country developed and some of the buildings that characterize it were built such as mosques, Turkish baths and the clock tower.
The current country is profoundly different from the original one.
The Bosnian war has greatly damaged him.
From the center of the village, some gray stone-paved roads climb up the mountain and lead to the Hadži Alija Mosque.
The mosque has undergone deep and repeated restoration work. The last ones began in 2002 and restored the dome and minaret destroyed by the bombs of the war in 1993.
The Fortress overlooks the village and is the panoramic place par excellence from where you can admire the village and the surrounding valley.
