Coliseum Club Sarajevo – Casino review
The best land-based casino in Bosnia and Herzegovina is located in the metropolitan area of Skenderija. Military action in the country left some of its premises in disrepair. In 1999, the BiH government renovated and restored them. In 2006, the entertainment centre was reconstructed and a sports, shopping and cultural centre was built adjacent to it. The striking backlit signboard and facade design make the gambling house stand out from the other constructions.
