Unac-vodopad kod Martin Broda, Bosna
Posjetite predivni vodopad rijeke Unac kod Martin Broda na rubu novo uređenog Nacionalnog parka Una kod Bihaća u Unsko-Sanskom kantonu na sjeverozapadu Bosne i Hercegovine. Nažalost je dolina rijeke Unac, koja leži jugoistočno od Martin Broda te izvan Nacionalnog parka Una, ugrožen kroz planiranu hidrocentralu. Više informacija o ovome može dobiti od bihaćke nevladine organizacije «EKUS» -ekološka koalicija za zaštitu Unskog sliva: http://www.ekus.ba

Visit the spectacular waterfall of the Unac at Martin Brod at the edge of the new established Una national park at Bihac in Una-Sana Canton in the Northwest of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is a shame, but the Unac valley southeast of Martin Brod and located outside the borders of the new established Una national park is in danger because of a planned hydropower plant. For more information just visit the Bihac based NGO «EKUS» – Ecological Coalition for Protection of Una River: http://www.ekus.ba/ Bosnia and Herzegovina is perfect for ecotourism and an ideal place for the adventure seeker or nature lover. It is rare to find a country that offers such diverse beauty of limestone mountains, lush valleys, centuries-old forests, crystal-clear rivers, waterfalls, mountain lakes, vineyards and orchards. Equally diverse is its rich historical and cultural heritage, which is coloured by Islamic, Catholic and Orthodox influences. Medugorje for example is one of the most popular Catholic pilgrimage sites in the world.
Or think of Sarajevo, quite a few people call it the “little Jerusalem”, because its main Catholic cathedral, the main Orthodox cathedral, the city mosque and a Jewish synagogue are all built within 500 meters of each other. The devastated tourism sector of this country which hosted the wonderful 1984 Winter Olympics has recovered to only a third of its pre-war number of tourists. Visiting this “green pearl of the Balkans” now, gives the traveller the unique chance, both to experience and to contribute to the healing process which is taking place everywhere in Bosnia and Herzegovina and to be welcomed by the warmest and most hospitable people.
