BOSNIA HERCEGOVINA - MOSTAR ( CROATIAN POST)


Mostar is a city and the administrative center of Herzegovina-Neretva Canton of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, an entity of Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is a special administrative region. Mostar is situated on the Neretva River and is the fifth-largest city in the country. Mostar was named after the bridge keepers (mostari) who in the medieval times guarded the Stari Most (Old Bridge) over the Neretva. The Old Bridge, built by the Ottomans in the 16th century, is one of Bosnia and Herzegovina's most visited landmarks, and is considered an exemplary piece of Islamic architecture in the Balkans. The City of Mostar has the status of a municipality. The city government is led by the Mayor.

Hrvatska pošta Mostar (English: Croatian Post Mostar) is one of three companies responsible for postal service in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It operates mainly in Croat-majority areas in Bosnia-Herzegovina and its headquarters are in Mostar. It was established in 1993. The other two postal operators in the country are BH Pošta (covering Bosniak-majority areas) and Pošte Srpske (operating in Republika Srpska).
