through centuries. Those who saw it just once
admired it same as those who grow up in sahde of
its arch. Bridge successfully withstood
temptations of Neretva. During the winter this
river would rose almost to the top of Bridges
arch but it was of no consequences. The most

so high like this one. It's tossed over the rocks
raising high up to the sky.
