Food Scene
Ćevapi or ćevapčići are one of the main reasons people fall in love with Sarajevo - it is the most famous traditional meal and you won't eat better ones anywhere but here. Eat them with onions and kajmak (cream), trust me.

Drinks & Nightlife
This place, and the couple of other bars around it (Cheers, City Pub, City Lounge etc) are nice places to go out for drinks in the evening. There's always a big crowd, both Sarajevans and tourists. You'll find it easily, there's a big red bus nearby.

The 70-year-old museum holds a permanent exhibition of the Sarajevo siege, a very interesting insight in the life of the Sarajevo people during those dark 1400 days. That is far from all this museum offers, however.

Getting Around
The main square, aside from being a landmark and offering plenty to see, is one of the main stops for the Sarajevo Tram, the oldest fully functioning tram network in Europe. From this stop, once you board the tram (don't forget buying the ticket), you can visit practically every place in the city.
