Bišćevića Ćošak

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:55:32

Built in 1635, Bišćevića Ćošak is a one of very few traditional Turkic-styled houses to retain its original appearance. Off the small entrance courtyard, three rooms are colourfully furnished with rugs, metalwork and carved wooden furniture.

Afternoon light pours in through the upstairs balcony room whose audacious river-bank overhang is now secured by long, concrete pillars beneath. For interesting comparisons also visit the grander Muslibegović House and arguably more authentic Kajtaz House .
