Check out the Latin Bridge in Sarajevo. An assassination attempt near the Latin Bridge is known as the fuse of World War I.

The Sarajevo Tunnel was built during the Bosnian War. Serbian forces besieged and relentlessly bombed Sarajevo, which was controlled by Bosnian separatists, causing countless deaths and near-extinction. The Bosnian separatists were almost completely out of ammunition and food. At the time, Sarajevo's population of approximately 500,000 relied solely on international aid for survival. The tunnel facilitated the entry of food, military supplies, and humanitarian aid into Sarajevo, and also became a crucial means of circumventing the arms embargo to supply weapons to the defending forces.

Sarajevo Old Town Hall is located on the Miljac River and is very eye-catching. It is the most magnificent building built during the Austro-Hungarian occupation of Sarajevo and a symbol of world civilization. It was built in 1892 with funding from the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The architectural style is a mixture of neoclassicism and Andalusian style, known as pseudo-Moorish style. The architectural structure is symmetrical and uses a lot of geometric shapes. The architectural style is inherited from Andalusia, that is, the architectural style in Morocco and Andalusia, Spain. The shadow of neoclassical style can be seen in the columns. This is because the Andalusian style became the "exotic style" sought after by mainstream European countries during that period, so this kind of mixed pseudo-Moorish style was born. The project of Sarajevo Old Town Hall was supervised by Alexander Wittek, who proposed a pseudo-Moorish design plan, combining the perfect architectural styles of the East and the West. Since its first opening on April 20, 1896, the building has become the most important symbol of Sarajevo. It is the seat of the Sarajevo government. After World War II, it became the library of the National University of Bosnia and Herzegovina. On August 25-26, 1992, during the Bosnian War, the building was hit by shells and nearly 90% of the library collection was burned, making it one of the symbols of the siege of Sarajevo. The building was rebuilt in 1996 and officially opened to the public on May 9, 2014, which happened to be Europe Day and Victory over Fascism Day.

Kazandziluk, one of Sarajevo's oldest streets, has been a center of coppersmithing for 500 years and still retains its Ottoman-era charm.
