Plava Voda
Plava voda
A bright blue spring gushing out at the foot of the fortress, with footbridges, wooden-hut restaurants, and old cafés. It is a good place for grilled meat and Bosnian coffee.
Plava Voda means 'blue water.' It is a karst spring at the foot of the mountain at the northern end of Travnik's old town. Its cold, clear water forms a small stream that flows past stone bridges and water wheels before joining the Lašva River. Several traditional restaurants line the stream, serving ćevapi, grilled lamb, and Travnik cheese. The long-established Lutvina Café serves Bosnian coffee brewed in copper pots. Admission is free. It is a common rest stop before or after climbing to the fortress, and it is busiest on summer evenings.
