Jajce is an historic town just outside of Banja Luka known for its natural beauty. I chose to stay here for a day in order to break up my two stints in “rest and relaxation” places (my five nights on Jablanica’s lake and my upcoming stay on a farm). Even though it’s a quiet town, it’s nice to have a change.
5km away from the town centre are the delightful Pliva lakes and their watermills. The watermills are more apparent they are watermills(!) in the months outside summer, when there is more water, but they are all original and rather quaint. It’s a quiet place with local atmosphere to while away the hours – I counted two hog roasts and four barbeques whilst I was there.
Separately, the strays of Jajce made me chuckle. As like much of the Balkans, Bosnia has a significant number of stray dogs but the strays of Jajce are really something else. Adorable, confident and adorable in their confidentness!
Tomorrow I travel onto my farmstay in Una National Park, which will be my final location in Bosnia & Herzegovina. TTFN, x
