About location

Built around an Ottoman market town founded by Isa-beg Ishaković, Novi Pazar grew into the principal urban centre of Serbia’s Sandžak region. Trg Gazi Isa-beg Isaković preserves the name of that founder at the heart of the city. The Raška River runs through the compact centre, with neighbourhoods climbing the enclosing hills. Ottoman-era architecture remains integral to Novi Pazar’s identity: the 16th-century Altun-Alem Mosque is among its best-known monuments. The town’s long Muslim tradition gives it a cultural character distinct within Serbia, while streets and commerce sustain its role as the regional centre.

Region Central Serbia

Among Serbia’s regions, Central Serbia stands out for the rolling hills of Šumadija and the broad river corridors that lead towards the Velika Morava. This is the country’s geographic core, where cultivated lowlands, wooded uplands and market towns form a transition between the Pannonian Plain and Serbia’s southern mountains. Kragujevac, the historic centre of Šumadija, became the capital of the Principality of Serbia under Miloš Obrenović and remains an important industrial and cultural city. The region also includes the fertile Morava valley, a long-established route for travel and settlement.
