The Old Front Line
Sam here. We're currently in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovena (BiH is the local shorthand). The town is both mindblowingly gorgeous and melancholy as a result of its position on the front line of the 1993 civil war. There has been a whole lot of rebuilding, but plenty of scars remain out in the open. I am not sure if it is for the benefit of the locals or the tourists, but the pock-marked face of both the new and old cities is a unique kind of photogenic I don't know that I have ever experienced prior.
