Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

The Clock Tower of Sarajevo is located near the Gazi Husrev-Beg Mosque and is also called Sahat-kula. If you look closely at the clock face, you will see that it is not a normal clock, but a moon clock, which in earlier times showed Muslims the time of sunset.

During my Balkan trip, I already became acquainted with one Sahat-kula - the Clock Tower of the Belgrade Fortress. But upon arrival in the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina - Sarajevo - pleasant moments of acquaintance with another Clock Tower awaited me!!! I was lucky enough to admire it both at night and during the day (as you can see in my photos). I can say with confidence that both in the sunlight and in the shining of the stars, the Sarajevo Sahat-kula looks magnificent.
The tower rises in the old part of the city on Mudželiti veliki Street, 200 meters from the Milacki bank in the Principova Bridge area. It was a pleasant discovery for me that this Old Sarajevo Clock Tower
is the tallest of the 21 clock towers that have survived to date on the territory of the Republic. Its height is 30 meters, but the architecture differs from other “products”. For example, like all clock towers in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sarajevska sahat-kula has a square at its base.
However, for some unknown reason, it is not entirely correct (which is completely uncharacteristic of architects of past centuries): the sides of this “square” are 3.2 meters and 3.32 meters. It seems that, at first glance, a difference of 12 centimeters at a 30-meter height is not significant. But the builders of the Middle Ages and subsequent centuries unshakably adhered to the established centuries-old rules.
By the way, at a height of 18 meters the error levels out!!! Another inexplicable feature of Sarajevo’s Sakhat Kula: it is wider at the top than at the bottom, indicating that all the other towers in the country narrow slightly upward or at least do not change the cross-sectional dimensions. What does it mean??? Have you noticed a certain “striping” of the structure? The whole point is that
The tower was built from tuff of a light brownish hue and, in order to “dilute” the monochrome of its “body” a little, every two and a half meters there is an “insert” of white limestone blocks.
The year of construction of the Sarajevo Clock Tower is not known with certainty. It is only known that it is part of the waqf of Gazi Husrev-beg, the Bosnian sanjak bey (governor) of the Sanjak of Bosnia in the first half of the 16th century during the Ottoman Empire. The dating of the construction of the Tower is complicated by the fact that, according to the canons of that time, it could have been built both during the life of the giver/sponsor (and he went to the Land of the Happy Hunt in 1541), and much later. And the whole point is in the concept of the term “waqf” I mentioned above.
In Islam, charity is given special importance: only through good deeds can one gain the favor of Allah. Wise confessors of Islam have found a very original way to do good even after their death. And this method is called “waqf” (also waqif or waqf): imagine something like a charitable foundation. But this is not a classic version of the funds we are used to, which is a bank account. These are mainly real estate objects.
And so, the founder of the waqf - vakif - used his money to build mosques, madrassas, imarets, chesme/chesme (drinking fountains) and other useful structures. Building is one thing. But all this equipment needs to be built. That is why the vakif invested its funds in the construction of profit-generating facilities: inns, taverns, hammams, bakeries, mills, workshops, shops, bridges.
And the income generated by these objects was used both to ensure the functioning of both previously built religious objects and to construct new ones. Therefore, it is not surprising that good deeds were entered into the “book of deeds” of the donor, which was closed by that time, decades or even centuries after his death. So do not be surprised if, while traveling around Bosnia and Herzegovina, in relation to both mosques and other objects, you hear the words “waqf” (or similar in sound).
Therefore, despite the fact that the construction of the Sarajevo Sahat-kula is attributed to Gazi Husrev Beg, who died in the middle of the 16th century, scientists believe that the Tower was built in the 17th century, which includes the first documentary mention of the Tower in the work of Evliya Celebi. Sahat-kula in Sarajevo has another interesting feature. At first glance, the clock on the Sarajevo tower, firstly, has incomprehensible symbols on the dial, and, secondly, it seems to us that they show the wrong time. As for the first: on the dial of the Sarajevo clock there are not some incomprehensible numbers - these are real ARABIC ones!!!
Just not those transformed over the centuries, to which we have long been accustomed, but traditional ones for Arabic writing. About the second incomprehensibility. In fact, the clock simply has a different reference point: midnight always occurs at sunset. This method, which was adopted in the Ottoman Empire, of measuring time according to the lunar calendar is called “a la turka”, in contrast to the European way of measuring time “a la franka”. By the way, all clock towers in Bosnia and Herzegovina have been converted to European time, with the exception of Sarajevo’s Sahat Kula.
The clock mechanism installed on the Tower was manufactured by the London company Gillett & Bland Croydon and was delivered in 1874 from London. It was purchased at the expense of the Sarajevo merchants Hashim-aga Glodzho and Meh-aga Hadzhikapetanovich and is still in good service!!! Sarajevo's Sahat-kula is an interesting object in all respects. I definitely recommend it!!!

From the courtyard of the Gazi Husrev Bag mosque you can see this clock tower which is contemporary. Architecturally it is quite common but our guide pointed out to us that the time indicated was not solar time as this is the only clock tower in the world that measures lunar time, "Turkish style", aligned with the time of the five daily prayers.

Essa torre do relógio fica localizada na parte histórica de Sarajevo. Uma curiosidade é que ela marca a hora lunar.

This clock tower has been around since the 17th century, when its construction was ordered by Gazi Husrev-Beg, the Ottoman governor of the area during the Ottoman period. At 30 metres tall, it’s also the tallest clock tower in Bosnia. The clock also has the distinction of being the only one I know that keeps to lunar time. Bizarre.

At 30 meters high, its the tallest clock tower in Bosnia. We didnt try and get access to it but just had a look at it when we could. It is important to the Muslim faith as it sets the prayer times and its face is set to the lunar time for this reason. t is located beside Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque and you can get a good view of it from there.

With a height of 30 meters, this is the tallest clock tower in Bosnia. The clock faces show lunar time which means they are set to show 12 o’clock at sunset

The clock tower can be seen from most of the city. It's set to lunar time to help with the call to prayer. The photo I've added is taken from the mosque's courtyard.
