Inside a Besieged City: How Sarajevo Functioned Under Fire

Explore Sarajevo through the systems, spaces, and decisions that allowed a city to function while under siege. This experience explains daily life, movement, survival inside a surrounded environment.
This experience examines Sarajevo during the siege by focusing on how the city continued to function under constant threat, rather than on battles or military operations.

The tour explains how residents adapted to a city with limited movement, disrupted infrastructure, and continuous risk. Streets, viewpoints, and public spaces are used to show how everyday activities — crossing a road, reaching water, or staying connected — required strategy and awareness.

Rather than presenting the war as a timeline of events, this tour treats Sarajevo as a living urban system under pressure, shaped by geography, visibility, and isolation.

You will visit:
- Sniper Alley, explained as a space of controlled movement rather than a combat zone

- Žuta Tabija, illustrating how elevation defined exposure and vulnerability

- Trebević Viewpoint, offering spatial understanding of siege dynamics

- The Jewish Cemetery, used to explain visibility, risk, and loss within the city

- The Tunnel of Hope, presented as an urban lifeline rather than a battlefield site
