Photographer Ognjen Golubović has captured the enchanting atmosphere of Banja Luka’s most recognizable sites as they were bathed in the soft light of dusk and blanketed by the year’s first snow.

His photos showcase the city’s iconic locations—such as Kastel Fortress, the Christ the Savior Temple, and scenic promenades—transformed into a winter wonderland. The untouched snow accentuates the beauty of these landmarks, creating a dreamlike ambiance that evokes admiration and serenity.

While the snow has covered the city in a peaceful white layer, the Vrbas River remains unfrozen, offering a dynamic contrast to the serene surroundings. Golubović’s photographs not only highlight the artistic charm of Banja Luka but also invite viewers to experience the city in this extraordinary winter setting.

The gallery is a testament to the unique allure of Banja Luka in winter, where even the bustling streets take on a tranquil and magical appearance. Whether you're a local or a visitor, these stunning images will inspire a fresh appreciation for the city’s timeless beauty.
