Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We stopped here since our drive took us literally right by it, and we'd heard that it was very historic. It was definitely a nice spot to get out of the car and move around a little bit, and the entrance fee (4 KM) was low. That said, we knew only the barest outline of historical information about these tombstones and thus did not fully appreciate all that was there to see. I'm sure it would be much better if you visited with a guide, but for us it was mainly a chance to spend 15 minutes out of the car, stretching our legs, and buying an ice cream from the small visitors center.

Stopped on the way back to Cavtat. A very interesting visit with our guide although I probably wouldn’t have visited independently. It is located near to a busy road which takes away from what should be a very peaceful location for an ancient burial site.

We (family with 3 kids) drove into the parking lot, we read the information sign, we used the toilet and then decided to leave because our kids had no interest in looking at this necropolis. Then the friendly but very persistent man from the visitor center told us that we must pay at least two entrance fees for using the toilet. I am 48 now and this never happened to me before ..., not to mention that there was no sign in the toilet, that it is not free of charge.

This place was recently added to the UNESCO list of world cultural heritage and it definitely deserved it. Stecaks are medieval tombstones and you can find it mostly in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and a smaller number in the bordering countries. There is a total of 133 tombstones here and some are beautifully decorated. Entrance fee is 4 KM (cca 2 euros) for individual visits. If you want to buy souvenirs (fridge magnets) with motives of this necropolis, go to the mosque next to "Inat ćuprija" in city of Stolac and you'll find it there. Do not miss this necropolis in Radimlja.

Great remainder of the history of area. Yet situated across the whole country, the largest collection on one place is Radimlja. Still in very good shape and condition. Very well worth to visit.

White limestone medieval tombstones. They were in a secluded cemetery and are currently a UNESCO world heritage site.

This is a medieval cemetery not far from Mostar 33km or so and easy drive. It was my first time ever to see a medieval necropolis and I was fascinated with the motives on the tombestones. It seems that the road kind of passed through the cemetery area as you can see some more tombestones scattered on the opposite side of the road too.

The necropolis of Radimlja is just became part of Worl Heritage.
These medieval tombstones are called "Stecci" and are dated from the 12th to 16th centuries.
Many burials are decorated in bas relief showing hunting scenes, knights, animals and holy symbols.
The visit and discovery of these tombstones was very interesting.

Also known as the Radimilja Necropolis, this large site contains a large number of limestone tombstones of historical significance. It is located in Vidovo polje, 3 km west of Stolac, on the Čapljina-Stolac road.
There are very interesting carvings on the stones and you either need to read about it beforehand or hire a local guide. Some information is available at the information centre.

Thank you for the discovery of your page.
Is the poetry reciting going to be an annual event? Is it schedule or programed for next year? Please forward a date or contacts.
I am quite interested in family history and I am sure my roots dig deep into the Radimlja necropolis.
Grateful for God's mysteries,
