Summary/Abstract: The paper gives basic indications about the touristic value of the town of Konjic, that is, indications of one of the most important tourist values, which is the Konjic Bridge. With a short analysis, we wanted to show the cultural, historical and social significance of a building from the Ottoman period, which has gone through a long journey of stormy and unpredictable times, but which also shone with the former light that illuminates the way for all well-intentioned travelers and tourists who visit the town of Konjic. As one of the monuments of material culture, Konjic Bridge, together with its accompanying facilities and its surroundings, represents an attractive, complementary and special environmental value, which is the basis for tourist activity. In particular, the tourist-geographic location of the city of Konjic is adaptable and accessible to all transit tourist movements, but also to tourist movements from significant dispersal centers, such as Mostar and Sarajevo. The special importance of the town of Konjic and its tourist values and potential is represented by the fact that the town is located at the point where the north and south of our country meet, that is, where Bosnia and Herzegovina meet.
