Old bazaar in Bosnian

čaršija
noun, feminineTaught in: Summer in Bosnia

čaršija is the Bosnian word for old bazaar / town center.

How it's used

The heart of every Bosnian town. Sarajevo's Baščaršija is THE čaršija.

From the lesson: Around Town

Directions in Bosnia come with hand gestures, a story about what used to be on that corner, and an invitation for kahva. The čaršija is where you'll spend most of your trip anyway.
