Vrelo Bune (Serbian Cyrillic: Врело Буне; transl. Buna Wellspring) is the natural and architectural ensemble at the Buna river spring near Blagaj kasaba (village-town) and a part of the wider "Townscape ensemble of the town of Blagaj — Historical and Natural Heritage of Bosnia and Herzegovina" (Ottoman Mediterranean architecture, 1520), southeast of Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The main argument in the KONS decision to declare the site protected and as such part of the protected Blagaj as the historic urban area, is the corelation and oneness of natural values and the architectural, cultural and historical heritage of Blagaj, expressed in "distinctive quality of the coexistence of the natural and the man-made", and "integration of the physical structure into the landscape".
