About the station NOVI PAZAR

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.

About the destination BITOLA

Bitola is a city in the southwestern part of North Macedonia. It is located in the southern part of the Pelagonia valley, surrounded by the Baba, Nidže and Kajmakčalan mountain ranges, 14 kilometres north of the Medžitlija-Níki border crossing with Greece. The city stands at an important junction connecting the south of the Adriatic Sea region with the Aegean Sea and Central Europe, and is an administrative, cultural, industrial, commercial, and educational centre. It has been known since the Ottoman period as "The City of The Consuls", since many European countries had consulates in Bitola.

Bitola, known during the Ottoman Empire as Manastir/Monastir, is one of the oldest cities in North Macedonia. It was founded as Heraclea Lyncestis in the middle of the 4th century BC by Philip II of Macedon. The city was the last capital of Ottoman Rumelia, from 1836 to 1867. According to the 2002 census, Bitola is the second-largest city in the country.

Bitola is the economic and industrial center of southwestern North Macedonia. Many of the largest companies in the country are based in the city. The Pelagonia agricultural combine is the largest producer of food in the country. The Streževo water system is the largest in North Macedonia and has the best technological facilities. The three thermoelectric power stations of REK Bitola produce nearly 80% of electricity in the state. The Frinko refrigerate factory was a leading electrical and metal company. Bitola also has significant capacity in the textile and food industries.

Bitola has been part of the UNESCO Creative Cities Network since December 2015.
