Very beautiful Seko - other countries always look nicer than here. Every where looks more tropical than the US. Also the older archecture of outside the US is so much nicer to look at (much nice than the modern skyscrapers here). I do have to say though that as large as the US is I managed to live in the most beautiful city here, actually it is ranked as one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

The bridge was totally destroyed in the war (1993) after standing above the beautiful river "Neretva" for more then 400 years!
There is a brief story about this famous bridge and town but it was written in 1999.(http://www.teamexpansion.org/stories/1999/19990128bosniastarimost.htm) The bridge was rebuild on july 23rd this year some famous ppl came to the ceremony including prince Charles ;) You can find out more by clickin here!http://www.centarzamir.org.ba
For the gallery of opening ceremony here: http://www.centarzamir.org.ba/opening/opening-bridge.htm

Where are you from?

Bila Tserkva, south of Kiev.
I've been to Odessa only one time, when I was 4, but I went a lot to Yevpatoria and Sevastopol.

I loved this place. You can whisper on one end and you'll be heard clearly on the other.

Here's Taras Shevchenko in Bila Tserkva: (I don't think there's any connection to Sheva)
