Bosnia. Mostar. A group of young modern muslim women walk on the footbridge and cross the temporary bridge. A view on the remains of the famous 15th century turkish bridge over the Neretva river. The old bridge was shelled and destroyed in 1993 by croat bombs during the bosnian war (croats against muslims).

A footbridge was built as an overpass to allow people to get on the other side of the city. 4.06.02 © 2002 Didier Ruef
