A panoramic view of north-eastern part of Sarajevo from Koševsko Brdo hill, summer 2010 – in upper-center is Koševo hospital complex (bright white) and next to it to the right Višnjik neighborhood, just behind a group of three small skyscrapers

Neighborhood is conceived as residential, on a hillside above city center never developed before, where, beside many small private gardens, also existed large cherry orchard - hence the name Višnjik (in English: Cherry orchard). It was designed and developed after the World War II, mostly between early 1950s and late 1960s.

Neighborhood designers utilized the presence of abundant natural greenery on the location, and developed designated space while preserving most of it. This became a main attribute of the neighborhood, one which constitutes important quality and appeal.
