Photographer’s Note
This beautiful monument is part of the Bihac Mosque. It is being repaired from the damage of the 90's.
Bihac is a quiet calm and nice town with the Una river dividing it. Being a (almost) 100% muslim town, we can listen to the prays anywhere.
When Bihac will be totally rebuilt, it will be an even more enjoyable place to spend a few days. The around nature and the beautiful buildings are a must for Bihac, a town full of youth.

Thanks for sharing photos from Bihac where I would like to go this summer but couldn't. As an addition to your notes I want to include what Bihac means actually. "hac" is the cross and "bi" is without (in ARabic). Therefore Bihac means "without crosses" which tries to reflect the muslim identity of the town. Thanks for sharing...
