Blagaj Dervish House + Buna River Spring

Due to its natural ambience and its historical importance, it is known worldwide as “Tekija at the source of the Buna river” or the Tekija in Blagaj.
The first written records refer to it as Sari Salutk’s burial site. According to tradition Sari Saltuk, one of the famous personas of the Ottoman empire known for many legends, was burried in it.

He lived in the end of the 13th century, and according to the legend he left a will with a wish to take different coffins to different non-muslim countries, so that no one could know where his body actually is.

The turbe of Sari Saltuk in Blagaj, probably owing to a vivid natural surrounding, is one of the places most often visited by the followers of Sufism or Tasawwuf teachings in Islam.
