Called Festina Lente, which in Latin means "make haste, slowly", the looping bridge spans 38 metres over the Miljacka river and loops-the-loop in the middle to create a shelter with two seats. The basic idea of the bridge is the union of the secular and spiritual and to establish a balance between left and right side. Crossing the bridge is a unique experience because of its specific layout and the views that we encounter when going through the gate (loop on the bridge is a symbolic gate), preparing us to enter into another dimension and awake spirituality. Technological solutions and the modern design of the bridge become the brand of Sarajevo.
The bridge construction is steel with aluminium trim and a glass fence. The bridge creates a true "genius loci" appropriate to the area in front of the temple as the Academy of Fine Arts.
Its form is unique, simple and attractive at the same time and because of the unexpectedness triggers a series of associations, establishing a new vision. On the bridge are two benches in covered sections, so it's a place of meeting and interacting. White LED lights light the bridge.
The tender for the construction of a pedestrian bridge was announced in 2007, and five years later the bridge was built.
