π¨π Paint one of the most beautiful Ottoman courtyards in the Balkans β Sarajevo's Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque
Soft morning light falls across ancient stone paving. The slender minaret rises into a pale sky. The octagonal ablution fountain stands quiet in the centre of the courtyard, just as it has since 1532. This is Sarajevo at its most serene β the city where East meets West, where minarets and church spires share the same skyline, and where 500 years of Ottoman craftsmanship still stands in the heart of the old bazaar.
Captured here as a paint-by-numbers you bring to life yourself, one number at a time, until every carved stone, every dome and every shaft of dawn light is yours.

β¨ A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY
Gazi Husrev-beg was the Ottoman governor of Bosnia who turned Sarajevo from a small settlement into a city of consequence. His mosque, completed in 1532 and designed by the legendary imperial architect Mimar Sinan, is the largest and most important historical mosque in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It survived centuries of fires, wars, and the devastating Bosnian War of the 1990s β restored faithfully each time. The courtyard's shadirvan fountain still serves its original purpose: a place of water, calm, and prayer. π The clock tower next door runs on lunar time β the only public clock in the world that does, resetting so that 12:00 always marks the moment of the evening prayer call.
