The ancient city of Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in addition to many beautiful old buildings and forts, has one interesting attraction . If you do not know its history, it may seem that this huge collapsed building has no cultural value.
Tito's Palace is one of the most important cultural sites of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which is a national value. Josip Broz Tito is the Yugoslav leader, who was the main face of the country from 1945 to 1980 years. Despite the fact that the times of his fame ended more than 30 years ago, the generation who lived in Yugoslavia and their children honored the memory of him and his activities.
What to see?
The palace of Tito is a gloomy sight - the absence of windows, sprouting trees on the facade, rust and locally destroyed walls make the former government palace a ghost building. In some places, the building is visible through, and through the roof you can see the sky, which arouses trepidation and fear. During the Second World War, the building was destroyed and despite the cultural value that it carries within 70 years, not a single restoration project was launched. It remains only to hope for the Bosnians, who respect the palace and directly to Tito himself. The building for many years was not damaged by the marauders and was not dismantled into bricks, and its dilapidation is a merit of time.
Tito's palace is visited mainly by local residents during national holidays, in contrast to tourists who consider this place compulsory for a visit at any time of the year. A deserted building is not protected in any way, so anyone can explore it for free and without hindrance. But it's worth to be careful, as the building is old enough and can be dangerous. The palace stands on a hill near, so tourists often make near him panoramic pictures, spectacular landmark and landscape.
How to get there?
Tito's palace is in Mostar on Gojka Vukovića street. Nearby is the popular hotel Eden, as well as Villa Monera - they are the main landmarks.
