There are also Pliva lakes with mills complex. this complex has been declared as a national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2009. In 1963 Jajce was a host to the European and World Championships in kayak and canoe. These waters offered the best conditions for training of kayakers, canoeists and rowers. Bosnia and Herzegovina is a country with amazing natural resources and unfortunately we don’t use these resources in their full capacity.

This cult came with Roman Empire.
