Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dec. 10, 1997: The Sebilj fountain and the minaret of the 16th century Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque are silhouetted against the misty Dinaric Alps surrounding the capital. The wooden 18th century fountain stands on Baščaršija square. Legend has it that those who drink from the fountain will return to Sarajevo.
