Mostar jest miastem w południowo-zachodniej Bośni i Hercegowinie nad rzeką Neretwą. Nazwa pochodzi od słowa mostari („strażnicy mostu”). Na lewym brzegu położone jest Stare Miasto (część muzułmańska) ze słynną ulicą "Kujundżiluk". Prawobrzeżna część miasta jest zamieszkała głównie przez Chorwatów. Brzegi Neretwy w obrębie starej części miasta łączy wybudowany przez Turków w 1566 roku kamienny most, zwany "Stary Most".
Kujundżiluk jest najsłynniejszą uliczką starówki Mostaru. Jej nazwa pochodzi od osiadłych na lewym brzegu rzeki mistrzów kowalstwa (kulundżije)
W listopadzie 1993, w wyniku działań wojennych, Chorwackie pociski zniszczyły zabytkowe budynki oraz most. Odbudowę budynków i mostu zakończono w 2004 roku. W lipcu 2005 Stary Most i jego najbliższe otoczenie (Kujundžiluk - stary bazar) zostały wpisane na listę światowego dziedzictwa kulturowego UNESCO.
The Old Town in Warsaw was established in the 13th century but almost totally demolished in the second World War. After the war Old Town was meticulously rebuilt. As many as possible of the original bricks were reused. However the reconstruction was not necessarily built accurately to pre-war Warsaw, often by deferring to an earlier period, attempting to improve upon the original, or by adding an authentic looking facade to cover a more modern building. The rubble was sifted for reusable decorative elements, which were reinserted into their original places.
Today Old town in Warsaw is listed as one of Unescos world heritages sites.

Church of Our Lady Assumed into Heaven (also known as Saint Mary's Church. is a Brick Gothic church adjacent to the Main Market Square in Kraków, Poland.
Built in the 14th century, its foundations date back to the early 13th century and serve as one of the best examples of Polish Gothic architecture. Standing 80 m (262 ft) tall, it is particularly famous for its wooden altarpiece carved by Veit Stoss (Wit Stwosz).
On every hour, a trumpet signal—called the Hejnał mariacki—is played from the top of the taller of Saint Mary's two towers. The plaintive tune breaks off in mid-stream, to commemorate the famous 13th century trumpeter, who was shot in the throat while sounding the alarm before the Mongol attack on the city. The noon-time hejnał is heard across Poland and abroad broadcast live by the Polish national Radio 1 Station.
