Una National Park
Una National Park (Bosnian: Nacionalni
park Una) was established in 2008 (29/05/08) around the Upper Una River and
the Unac River. It is Bosnia and Herzegovina’s most recently established
national park. The main purpose of the park is to protect the unspoiled Una and
Unac rivers which run through it.
Protection zone of the National Park
stretches on the western side from the source of the Krka creek and its course
to the confluence with the Una on the state border of Bosnia and Herzegovina
with Croatia from where park border follows the Una and state border to the
town of Martin Brod and confluence with the Unac. On the eastern side border of
the park goes from the entrance of the Unac River into its canyon, few
kilometers downstream from town of Drvar, and follows the Unac and its canyon
all the way to the confluence with the Una in town of Martin Brod. From there
park border follows the Una on the right and state border between Bosnia and
Herzegovina and Croatia on the left, until it reach a small town of Ripac, few
kilometers upstream from town of Bihac.
The Una’s waterfalls and white water rapids
highlight the park. The most famous waterfalls are those at Martion Brod, where
the popular "International Una Regatta" kayaking competition
begins, and Strbacki Buk further downstream. Throughout the park, visitors can
enjoy prime conditions for rafting, fishing, cycling, hiking, and camping. Jumping
from the city bridges in Bihac and Bosanska Krupa is also popular. Largest
waterfall on the Una river is Strbacki Buk, and is one of the main feature in
the Park.
Una National Park is also noted for its
biodiversity, with 30 fish species, 130 bird species, and other animals,
including lynx, fox, wolf, bear and chamois.
Area of the park has rich cultural-historic
heritage and numerous archaeological sites, many dating from the prehistoric
period. Significant historical and cultural heritage of the area within and
outside the park zone are the Roman fort Milanceva Kula, Rmanj, Rmanj
Monastery, medieval fortress Ostrovica above Kulen Vakuf, as well as outside
the park zone Sokolacka Kula fortress in Sokolac village near Bihac and
Ostrozac Castle between Bihać and Bosanska Krupa.
Proximity to Pljesevica mountain virgin
forest, which stretches between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, and
Croatia’s Plitvice Lakes National Park makes Una National Park a top
destination for visitors. More importantly, all of the facts about these two
National Parks, their proximity, natural, cultural and historical richness,
brings out the possibility and makes viable idea of joint management and
promotion.
The Plitvice Lakes National Park has been
inhabited by strong conquerors that lived centuries ago, including Celts,
Romans or Ottomans. Nowadays, the park, which occupies nearly 297 square
kilometers, is protected by law and for good reason.
While there is a large number of sightseeing
objectives in this area, most tourists come to watch the 16 interconnected
lakes linked to one another by a series of rivers and spectacular waterfalls.
Ever since the 19th century, when locals began building hotels here, tourists
were given the chance of walking over rivers and woods on specially designed
bridges.
One of the most beautiful objectives here,
Veliki Slap, is the tallest waterfall in Croatia; as tourists admit, watching
the water coming from the Plitvice stream and falling down on the 78 meters
high rocks covered in plants is, indeed, a unique experience.

The monastery in Žitomislići
In the valley on the left bank of Neretva, on the highway towards the
Adriatic Sea, we find the Žitomislići-monastery and its church.
There are several proofs found that the village Žitomislići existed in
pre-historic time, and example of these are the ruins of a basilica and stones
with various engraved patterns. Several churches and monasteries were
re-established in the 16th and 17th century, and one of
them was the monastery in Žitomislići (1602/03). The head master in the
monastery was Milisan Hrabren, but he did not live long enough to see the full
restoration of the monastery.
From the middle of the 19th century, the monastery improved
its economic, cultural and educational status. This led to the establishment of
the Serbian national school and the Spiritual School in the village.
By the looking at the architectural aspects, the church of monastery is
similar to the monasteries in Zavala and Pljevlji.
All the valuable documents from the Ottoman period, sacred items and the
entire library were destroyed in a fire that took place in the monastery.
The place was recognized as a historical monument after the Second World
War, but it was unfortunately totally destroyed during the recent war. The
restoration is in progress, and the monastery is once again an active,
spiritual centre.

Jovan Ducic
A great poet and a diplomat, Jovan Dučić was born in Trebinje. The exact
date of his birth is not known, but it is assumed that he was born in 1872. He
has always pointed out his love for his hometown. The best proof of that are
the things that he has done throughout his life and that he has left behind.
The paths of his life have led him often away from Trebinje, which made him
homesick. Dučić’s collection of over 5000 books, manuscripts of his literary
works, journals and personal possessions are being kept at the National library
in Trebinje.
He started his diplomatic career around the year 1907. As a diplomat, he
used to travel a lot, and he always tried to transfer the achievements of the
modern civilization to his native town.
Jovan Dučić died in 1943.
in the USA. According to his own wish he was buried in
his hometown. His grave is in the Hercegovačka Gračanica, on the hill Crkvina
above Trebinje.
