Bosnia And Herzegovina
Bosnia and Herzegovina ( sh, / , ), abbreviated BiH () or B&H, sometimes called Bosnia–Herzegovina and often known informally as Bosnia, is a country at the crossroads of south and southeast Europe, located in the Balkans. Bosnia and Herzegovina borders Serbia to the east, Montenegro to the southeast, and Croatia to the north and southwest. In the south it has a narrow coast on the Adriatic Sea within the Mediterranean, which is about long and surrounds the town of Neum. Bosnia, which is the inland region of the country, has a moderate continental climate with hot summers and cold, snowy winters. In the central and eastern regions of the country, the geography is mountainous, in the northwest it is moderately hilly, and in the northeast it is predominantly flat. Herzegovina, which is the smaller, southern region of the country, has a Mediterranean climate and is mostly mountainous. Sarajevo is the capital and the largest city of the country followed by Banja Luka, Tu ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Karst Cave
Karst is a topography formed from the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum. It is characterized by underground drainage systems with sinkholes and caves. It has also been documented for more weathering-resistant rocks, such as quartzite, given the right conditions. Subterranean drainage may limit surface water, with few to no rivers or lakes. However, in regions where the dissolved bedrock is covered (perhaps by debris) or confined by one or more superimposed non-soluble rock strata, distinctive karst features may occur only at subsurface levels and can be totally missing above ground. The study of ''paleokarst'' (buried karst in the stratigraphic column) is important in petroleum geology because as much as 50% of the world's hydrocarbon reserves are hosted in carbonate rock, and much of this is found in porous karst systems. Etymology The English word ''karst'' was borrowed from German in the late 19th century, which entered German much earlier. ...

Bijambare Srednja Pećina
The Bijambare ( sr-cyrl, Бијамбаре) area, well-known for its cave complex, is located on the far north-eastern slopes of Ilijaš municipality, near Olovo a small town near Sarajevo, capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The protected landscape area is within boundaries of the Nišići plateau. It is accessible by the main road Sarajevo- Olovo, from which an asphalt road branches out leading towards a mountain home and the especially known ''Bijambare cave''. Large parts of these caves are open to visitors. Protected landscape The middle part of Bijambare is a karst plateau with all its commonly observed characteristics: caves, lost rivers, intriguing funnel-shaped depressions, rocky massifs and ''Bijambarsko Lake''. There are numerous karst caves in the protected area, explored so far are the ''Middle (The Main) Bijambare Cave'', ''Ledenjača'', ''Lower Bijambare Cave'', ''Ðuričina Cave'', ''Upper Bijambare Cave'', ''Dimšina Cave'', ''Ledenica'' and ''New Cave'' ...
