I am reading Andric's magnificent book, The Bridge on the Drina. Your photographs of the bridge are haunting and, as I look at them, I can imagine the characters acting, speaking. I have an enhanced understanding of the history of that extraordinary area.

Vlado, these are beautiful photos of the Višegrad bridge! I want to thank you also for allowing the use of your surreal and gorgeous photo from Belgrade (relection in a puddle) to be the cover image of my novel, Drina Bridge (published 2006) which was inspired by the history of the bridge on the Drina and even more by Ivo Andrić's novel Na Drini Ćuprija.

I would like to be immodest here for a moment (for both of us) and urge your fans on this site to buy the book! The bridge and the town of Višegrad and Ivo Andrić himself all are part of the novel, along with two men (a Bosnian and a Canadian) whose lives are changed by the Bosnian war of 1992-1995. The book is about love and war and loss, the search for peace, the search for meaning in our lives. It can be purchased at amazon.ca, and is also available from other book sites. The amazon webpage is: http://www.amazon.ca/Drina-Bridge-Jim-Bartley/dp/1551929597/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1210995261&sr=1-1

Hvala Vlado! Sve najbolje želje!

Simo, the bridge is in Bosnia and Herzegovina, precisely in Republic of Srpska, and I have mentioned it when I have created this gallery.
Try to search photos from Bosnia and Herzegovina, then you will find photos from this gallery:

You never mentioned that this bridge is in Bosnia-Herzegovina, not in Serbia.

The bridge, which I've paid a visit in February, was one of my ancestors' state-of-the-art works here on this paradise land until reading Andriç's book. Now the bridge is much more meaningful and impressive to me. I recommend you to visit the region in spring time, when the green spreads everywhere. This is a ''must-see'' country.

Thank you very much for the beautiful photos. I've just finished to read the book and your photos made the whole story more real for me. Many thanks, Regina Tassitano

Thank you for the photos. Our reading group (readliterature.com) is reading the book this month (September 2006) and the photos are of great help. Other readers are welcome to join us with the discussions of this book.

Thanks for posting these wonderful photos. Like many others, it seems, I have only now just heard of the bridge due to reading the famous book. Your photos are great.

Just started the novel and couldn't continue until I saw an image of the bridge.
I just returned from B-H and kept imagining the bridge in Mostar.
This is quite different and truly impressive. I wish I had visited but hopefully
I'll have another opportunity.

Thanks!

We are so grateful for you pictures, because we are currently reading Ivo Andric's book, The Bridge on the Drina." Trying to visualize the kapia was getting to be too much. We needed to see a picture of it! You did it. All of them are marvelous!
