Interestingly, in many ways, but the carriers predominate sea level height and the fact that it is the “last true Bosnian village”. In Lukomir there are tombstones that date from the 14th and 15th century, it is believed that the village was inhabited and hundreds of years ago. It is unique in many ways, but especially by the old stone houses and more than 200 years, which are covered with shingles of cherry wood.
