District of Peja combines a lively urban centre with rugged highland terrain in a way that reflects its position between the Kosovo Plain and the Accursed Mountains. The city of Peja stands where the Peja Bistrica leaves Rugova Canyon, a deep limestone gorge extending west into the mountains. Nearby, the Patriarchate of Peć is a Serbian Orthodox monastic complex inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List as part of the Medieval Monuments in Kosovo. Rugova’s forests, cliffs and mountain pastures give the district a markedly different character from Kosovo’s central lowlands.
