2. The Buna Spring (Vrelo Bune)

Buna Spring is a natural spring river that flows from underground karst river. It’s one of the most beautiful springs in Europe. During winter the water turns aquamarine and during summer it turns vibrant turquoise.

On the right side of Buna Spring river bank, stood the Blagaj Tekke, a Sufi Dervish Monastery. It was built around 1520 with elements of Ottoman architecture and Mediterranean style. Adventurous visitors can take boat rides into the cave next to it for a quick tour. Those who prefer to stay dry on tour can enjoy a tour inside the monastery.
