The Mehmed Paša Sokolović Bridge in Višegrad, Bosnia and Herzegovina, is a stunning example of Ottoman architecture and engineering. Built in the 16th century, this historic bridge crosses the Drina River and is known for its unique design and cultural significance. The bridge was commissioned by Grand Vizier Mehmed Paša Sokolović and has since become a symbol of Višegrad. It was also immortalized in the novel "The Bridge on the Drina" by Nobel Prize-winning author Ivo Andrić.
