Ilidža - Strolling through the park
I thought it might be interesting if I say something about Ilidža. It is one of nine municipalities in Sarajevo Canton. It is located 12 km away from the centre of Sarajevo. The main Roman settlement (2000 years ago) was just in Ilidža. On the basis of archaeological findings it was concluded that Romans called this settlement Aquae S and that they built the first steam bath because of source of healthy thermo-mineral water which they used for medicine purpose.
The Ottoman Empire continued with the tradition of steam bath healing renaming the settlement Ilidža. The name comes from the Turkish Ilađ, which stands for cure; providing health.
During the Austo-Hungarian period the bath was renovated into a modern health resort. Today, there is a complex made of five hotels. Some of them are still being renovating like this one you can see on the photos.

Hi my blogging friends,
April began with rain and with my cold; running nose, headache, bone ache etc. It still has been raining and it is cold outside. Although I am still cold I am now feeling much better than previous days. I am sorry that I wasn't able to visit your blogs but I'll try to do that as soon as I can. Thank you all for your visitings and your really nice comments.
