Exhibition "Blue Train" dedicated to monuments of Second World War
The idea of the project is to create an economically viable tourist route that will connect significant sites from the Second World War. In addition to economic significance, the project has the aspect of "reconciliation" of the inhabitants of the three former Yugoslav states who will work together on the valorization and creation of a tourist product based on monuments and memorial complexes from the Second World War.
As part of the exhibition "Blue Train", monuments from BiH were presented, namely: Sarajevo (Vrace Memorial Park), Foča (Tjentište National Park Sutjeska), Prijedor (Kozara National Park), Mostar (Partisan Cemetery) and Zenica (Smetovi). Sremski Front (Sid), Kosmaj (Mladenovac) and Kadinjaca (Uzice) were presented from Serbia, while the monuments Trebjesa (Niksic), Jasikovac (Berane) and Zabljak were shown from Montenegro as part of the Blue Train exhibition.
