Novi Pazar is a city in Serbia, in the region of Raška, or Sandžak. It is located 297 km south of Belgrade, on a section of the old road that leads to Podgorica and the Adriatic Sea via the Ibar highway. It is located in the star-shaped valley of the Jošanica, Raška, Deževska and Ljudska rivers, at an altitude of 496 m. It is surrounded by the high mountains of Golija and Rogozna and the Pešter plateau.
The founder of Novi Pazar was Isa-beg Ishaković, who built the city in the middle of the 15th century in the immediate vicinity of the medieval settlement of Trgovište, known as Ras. Novi Pazar has a turbulent and rich history. The special value of this multiethnic and multicultural space, where Western and Eastern civilizations meet, is made up of numerous cultural and historical monuments, including Peter's Church, Đurdevi Stupovi, Sopoćani Monastery, the City Fortress with the Observation Tower, Altun-alem Mosque, Amir-agin Han...
The social economy is mostly inactive, unlike the private sector, which is very developed. The greatest resource of Novi Pazar is creative people, who in recent decades, without anyone's help, have founded a large number of private small and medium-sized enterprises, numbering over 6,000. Over 500 private enterprises are engaged in the production of clothing, footwear and furniture, while the rest are mainly engaged in service activities and trade. Freight transport and passenger traffic also play a significant role, with over 2,650 companies for the transport of goods and passengers.
In addition to natural and human resources, as well as numerous cultural monuments, Novi Pazar has great potential for sustainable development - the production of healthy food and the development of all forms of tourism.
