Tuzla

The city has Europe's only salt lake as part of its central park; more than 100,000 people visit its shores every year. From Tuzla hails one of the most influential writers in the Balkans, Meša Selimović . In addition, Tuzla hosts the annual Meša Selimović book festival (in July), where an award for the best novel written in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia , and Serbia and Montenegro is presented. The first professional theatre in Tuzla, Narodno Pozorište u Tuzli , was founded by the brothers Mihajlo and Živko Crnogorčević in 1944.
