The cup for the final hole is the Gazi Husrev-begova džamija. This round takes place in Sarajevo, where the map is the actual city and the ball rolls across its real streets. The holes are built from the city's actual attractions. I know these corners well, having spent plenty of time dodging crumbs on the pavement. It is a full round of 18 holes with a par of 53, covering a walk of 11.4 km and using 38 portals to bridge the gaps.

HOLE 1 - PAR 2

Zemaljski muzej Bosne i Hercegovine

Zemaljski muzej Bosne i Hercegovine is a national museum located in central Sarajevo. Founded in 1850, the institution is a primary landmark in the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina. When you look at the structure, you are seeing the work of Karel Pařík, who is the architect of the museum. I find that the building's scale gives it a distinct presence that is easy to pick out among the other sights in the city center. It is a great place to stop and orient yourself before continuing your journey through the streets of the capital.
