Visegrad, Bosnia and Herzegovina
Visegrad is a lovely town, located on the Drina river in Republika Srpska, an entity of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This town became known to the world after Nobel Prize winner (1961) Ivo Andric published the historical novel The Bridge on the Drina.
The Old Stone Bridge from the 16th century, an endowment of Grand Vizier Mehmed Pasha Sokolovic is one of the most important national monuments of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and was entered in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. In the ascendant of his powers, Grand Vizier Mehmed Pasha Sokolovic ordered that the most beautiful bridge must be built in Visegrad on the Drina river. The main architect of the bridge was Mimar Sinan, the greatest architect of the Otoman empire. The bridge of Mehmed Pasha Sokolovic is a nice example of the Ottoman architecture. The bridge is 180 m long and 6 m wide, featuring 11 arches above the river. It is the top Visegrad attraction and a key stop in trips to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Just nearby this famous bridge is another tourist attraction – Andricgrad (Andrictown). Andricgrad is a project of a famous film director Emir Kusturica, inspired by works and characters of mentioned famous writer, nobel prize winner, Ivo Andric. In architectural terms, the city itself is a mix of different eras and styles that have changed through the history of this area: the Byzantine style, the Ottoman period, the Renaissance and Classicism. Some of the main objects of Andricgrad are: Ivo Andric Institute, Memorial House, Fine arts Academy, Centre for Slavic languages, Town hall, Multiplex cinema, Renaissance theatre, restaurants, coffee bars and souvenir shops. After opening, it became one of the top things to see in Visegrad.

Andrićgrad
Andrićgrad je nastao kao ideja prof. Kusturice o kamenom srednjovjekovnom gradu inspirisanog djelima i likovima nobelovca Ive Andrića. To je ustvari vizija kako je Višegrad mogao izgledati da ga nisu zaobišli renesansa i ostali istorijski periodi. U arhitektonskom pogledu sam grad je mješavina različitih epoha i stilova koji su je smjenjivali kroz istoriju ovog područija: vizantijski stil, otomanski period, renesansa, klasicizam. Tokom šetnje kroz glavnu ulicu-korzo posjetioci će moći da se vrate u prošlost :
„ona praktično spaja dva perioda – fragmente renesanse sa otomanskim periodom i Vizantijom.
– Na ulazu se karavan saraj susreće sa bizantskim dvorom, a u nastavku će biti ono što je mogla da izgradi Austrija, a nije, kao što i otomanska imperija nije izgradila ono što je trebala da izgradi. Na kraju, prema glavnom trgu, koji je neka vrsta klasicizma, koji je trebao nastati za vreme kraljevine između dva svetska rata, razvijaće se ulica sa delovima renesanse, koje je mogla napraviti Austrija“

Visegrad Bridge on the Drina promo video
Bridge on the Drina (Mehmed pasa Sokolovic Bridge) in Visegrad, Bosnia and Herzegovina, PROMO VIDEO.
Copyright: Tourist organization of Visegrad
Author: Novak Knezic
The Bridge on the Drina is a heritage of the Grand Vizier Mehmed Pasha Sokolovic (in Turkish Sokollu Mehmed Paşa, 1505. or 1506-1579). He is one of the greatest Ottoman war generals by origin from Bosnia. He was born in the village of Sokolovići near Rudo in 1505. or 1506, as a child of Orthodox parents.
At that time, there was a tradition known as Devsirme, or „The contribution in blood”. Serbian children were taken away by force to Turkey where they would be converted to Islam and taught in their military schools to become Janissaries, the elite soldiers of the Turkish Empire. So Bajica Sokolovic was also taken as a child from the surroundings of Višegrad and was given the name Mehmed.
He would later become an officer of the Ottoman army thanks to his skills, and at top of his power he became the Grand Vizier, equal to the Prime Minister, by today`s standards.
At the highest peak of his rule, he ordered a bridge to be built like no other in Visegrad on the Drina River.
The bridge was built in the period from 1571 to 1577 by at that time, the most famous Turkish architect Koca Mimar Sinan.
The bridge consists of 11 arches with mild ascend towards the middle section and it has a descending ramp on the left bank.The total length is 179.5 m, height above the normal water level of the river is 15.40 m and the width of the bridge is 6.30 m.There are extensions above the sixth pillar on both sides of the bridge.
In the middle of the bridge a sofa was built and it was designed for passengers to rest and across from the sofa a stone portal was built. There are two plates made of white marble with verses of the poet Nihadi in Arabic alphabet, talking about the constructor and the year of construction.
The bridge was fully repaired in the period from 1949. to 1952.
In 2007, bridge was entered in the UNESCO list of world cultural heritage, as a bridge with big cultural impact, and also as a best representative of a classical ottoman style in bridge making.
UNESCO criteria for entering the list (unesco.org):
Criterion (ii): Located in a position of strategics importance, the bridge bears witness to important cultural exchanges between the Balkans, the Ottoman Empire and the Mediterranean world, between Christianity and Islam, through the long course of history. The management of the bridge and repairs made it to have also involved different political and cultural powers: after the Ottomans came the Austro-Hungarians, the Yugoslav Federation, and the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Criterion (iv): The Visegrad bridge is a remarkable architectural testimony to the apogee of the classical age of the Ottoman Empire, whose values and achievements mark an important stage in the history of humankind.
“The property, principally consisting of the bridge, the access ramp and the two river banks upstream and downstream, is protected by its buffer zone on each bank of the Drina river. The integrity of the bridge is vulnerable but is now adequately protected by the buffer zone and appropriately expresses the values it embodies.”
Ada apa di Visegrad? Bosnia Herzegovina
Visegrad berpenduduk 11 rb dgn komposisi Serbs 90 % dan Muslim kurang dari 10% sebelum perang Bosnia wilayah ini komposisinya terbalik Muslim lbh banyak hingga 70%.
Ada 2 spot menarik di visegrad yakni jembatan mehmet pasha sokolovic dan Andricgrad
Jembatan mehmet pasha sokolovic
Kontruksi jembatan di lakukan pada tahun 1571-1577 dgn arsitek turki bernama Koca Mimar Sinan dgn pengaruh oriental yg kental. Jembatan memiliki 11 tiang penyangka dan di bagian ujung lainnya di buat menikung menyusuri sungai.
Panjang jembatan 179.5 m dgn lebar 6.30 m dan ketinggian diatas sungai adalah 15.40 m. Bahan dasar jembatan adalah batu tufa yg banyak dijumpai di sekitar visegrad.
Pada tengah jembatan ada ruang duduk utk penjaga dan disebelahnya terdapat prasasti berisi informasi tahun konstruksi dan pembuatnya. Ada tulisan berbahasa arab dan kurang lebih bunyinya
di Sungai Drina Bosnia ini telah dibangun sebuah jembatan luar biasa megah dan masing masing tiangnya menancap kuat di alur sungai yang dalam dan deras airnya. Pengganti Sokolovic kelak belum tentu mampu membuat jembatan seperti ini. Atas kehendak Allah, Mehmet Pasha membangun ini dan namanya disebutkan sebagai bentuk penghormatan dan terima kasih karena telah membangun jembatan ini yang tidak ada bandingnya lagi di dunia
Tulisan ini menginpirasi ivo andric untuk menulis buku The bridge on Drina yg mengantarkan dia menerima hadiah nobel di bidang sastra. Jembatan ini masuk Unesco dan ditetapkan sebagai monumen nasional Bosnia Herzegovina pada july 2007.
Andricgrad
Setelah jembatan adalagi tempat menarik untuk dikunjungi adalah Andricgrad yang didedikasikan kepada Ivo andric yang mengharumkan jembatan visegrad lewat buku The bridge on Drina.
Andricgrad atau kamengrad merupakan sebuah kota yang merefleksikan semua zaman dari medieval ottoman hingga yugoslavia berisi Ivo Andric Institute, sekolah, gedung pemerintahan gereja toko dan restoran serta bioskop.
Pembuatan Adricgrad diprakarsai oleh pembuat film terkenal Bosnia bernama Emir Kusturica.
