Located in the northeastern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Tuzla is a city that harmoniously combines millennia of history with the energy of a modern European city.

Its name derives from the word “salt,” a symbol that has shaped the destiny of the city and its people for centuries – representing perseverance, hard work, and progress.

Today, Tuzla is recognized not only as the city of salt but also as a city of tolerance, multiculturalism, and solidarity. Here, different religions, languages, and cultures have coexisted peacefully for centuries, making Tuzla a living example of unity in diversity and a place where humanism and anti-fascism remain core values of life.

The city’s most famous attraction is the Pannonian Lakes – a unique complex of saltwater lakes located in the very heart of the city, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors each year.

In the immediate vicinity lies the Archaeological Park “Pannonian Salt,” bearing witness to the long tradition of salt production in this area dating back to the Neolithic period.

Tuzla is also a city of youth, knowledge, and technology. The University of Tuzla serves as a key center for education and science, bringing together students, professors, and researchers who shape the city’s intellectual potential.

In addition, the BIT Center is a modern incubator for innovation and entrepreneurship – a place where young professionals, digital creators, and start-up teams develop new technologies and drive digital transformation.

The City of Tuzla is deeply committed to digital transformation, energy efficiency, and sustainable development. In recent years, it has become increasingly recognized as a city of green policies, investing in clean energy, environmental protection, and modern communal infrastructure. Thanks to these efforts, Tuzla was named the most favorable destination for digital nomads in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2024.

What truly makes Tuzla special are its people – open, hospitable, and compassionate. Their spirit of solidarity and mutual care remains the city’s greatest strength.

Tuzla is more than just a city – it is a symbol of tradition, innovation, and progress. A city that connects people, ideas, and values.
