5.00Must visit if you are motivated to understand the disasters of war. The visit has only a part of the original tunnel and some photos and explanatory material. I find it expensive for what it is, although interesting to understand the suffering of the population. When you arrive, do not enter the first parking lot on the left, it costs 2 km. If you keep going straight, you can park for free next to the coaches
A must if you are in Sarajevo
