NOVI PAZAR - Serbia Travel Guide | Around The World
Novi Pazar (Serbian Cyrillic: Нови Пазар, lit. New Bazaar) is a city located in the Raška District of western Serbia. As of the 2011 census, the urban area has 66,527 inhabitants, while the city administrative area has 100,410 inhabitants.
Novi Pazar is the cultural center of the Bosniaks in Serbia and the historical region of Sandžak.A multicultural area of Muslims and Orthodox Christians, many monuments of both religions, like the Altun-Alem Mosque and the Church of St. Apostles Peter and Paul, are found in the region.
During the 14th century under the old Serbian fortress of Stari Ras, an important market-place named Trgovište started to develop. By the middle of the 15th century, in the time of the final Ottoman Empire conquest of Old Serbia, another market-place was developing some 11 km to the east. The older place became known as Staro Trgovište (Old Trgovište, Turkish: Eski Pazar) and the younger as Novo Trgovište (New Trgovište, Turkish: Yeni Pazar). The latter developed into the modern city of Novi Pazar.
The name of Novi Pazar (meaning new marketplace) was thus derived from the Serbian name Novo Trgovište, via the Turkish name Yeni Pazar, which is itself derived from bazaar (from Persian بازار (bāzār), meaning market; from Middle Persian بهاچار (bahā-chār), meaning place of prices). It is still known as Yeni Pazar in modern-day Turkey.
Lying on crossroads between numerous old and new states, Novi Pazar has always been a strong trade center. Along with the trade, the city developed manufacturing tradition. During the 20th century, it became a center of textile industry.
Paradoxically, during the turbulent 1990s and, Novi Pazar prospered, even during the UN sanctions, boosted by the strong private initiative in textile industry. Jeans of Novi Pazar, first of forged trademarks, and later on its own labels, became famous throughout the region. However, during the relative economic prosperity in Serbia of the 2000s, the Novi Pazar economy collapsed, with demise of large textile combines in mismanaged privatization, and incoming competition from the import.
The old Serbian Orthodox monastery of Sopoćani, the foundation of St. King Uroš I, built in the second half of the 13th century and located west of Novi Pazar, is a World Heritage Site since 1979 accompanying with Stari Ras (Old Ras), a medieval capital of the Serbian great župan Stefan Nemanja.
The city also houses an old church from the 9th-century Church of St. Peter. On a hilltop overlooking Novi Pazar is the 12th century monastery of Đurđevi stupovi, long left in ruin, but recently restored and with a monastic community using it, with plate glass to keep out the weather and preserve the fine frescos. The main mosque of the city, the Altun-Alem Mosque, is the largest in this region of the Balkans and dates from 16th century. There are various other historic Ottoman buildings, such as the 17th-century Amir-agin Han, a 15th-century Hammam, and the 15th-century Turkish fortress (all gone but the walls, the site of which is now a walled park in the city centre).
Novi Pazar is home to two universities, the International University of Novi Pazar and the State University of Novi Pazar.
The city's football club FK Novi Pazar was founded in 1928, under the name FK Sandžak, which later changed to FK Deževa. The club has played under its current name since 1962, when Deževa and another local football club, FK Ras, unified under this name. The club was a SFRJ amateur champion, and a member of the Yugoslav Second League. FK Novi Pazar qualified for a promotional play-off twice, but lost both times (to FK Sutjeska Nikšić in 1994, and to FK Sloboda Užice in 1995). FK Novi Pazar finally promoted to Serbian SuperLiga in 2011-12 season. FK Novi Pazar is the oldest second-league team in Serbia. Football is still extremely popular sport in Novi Pazar and city stadium is always full.
Volleyball clubs in the city are OK Novi Pazar (first league) and OK Koteks.
Handball club is in second league and used to have name Ras but it was changed in RK Novi Pazar in 2004.
Famous athletes from the city include Turkish basketball national team player Mirsad Jahović Türkcan, former football player of Besiktas Sead Halilagić, handball-player Mirsad Terzić (who represents Bosnia and Herzegovina) and young football players Adem Ljajić, Ediz Bahtiyaroğlu, and alpinist Basar Čarovac who climbed all seven continents' highest peaks.

Занимљивости
СПОНА ЦИВИЛИЗАЦИЈА
„У околини древног града Раса, прве престонице Србије, налази се импресивна група средњовековних споменика, написано је у повељи Унеска. Манастири Сопоћани и Ђурђеви ступови, Петрова црква, остаци тврђаве Рас и Градина најзначајнији су део те споменичке целине. Свет су понајвише задивиле трепераве Сопоћанске фреске: Успење Пресвете Богородицена светскојизложби у Паризу, 1961. године, проглашено је за најлепшу фреску средњег века.
ПРЕФИЊЕНА ЛЕПОТИЦА
Драгуљ исламске архитектуре је новопазарска Алтун алем џамија (16. век). Назив Алтун алем у преводу значи – драги камен. Градска тврђава са Старом чаршијом и комплекс око џамије посебна су амбијентална целина. Занимљиво је то што је у изворном облику сачуван и стари хамам (15. век), који је изградио оснивач града Иса-бег.

SPONA CIVILIZACIJA
„U okolini drevnog grada Rasa, prve prestonice Srbije, nalazi se impresivna grupa srednjovekovnih spomenika, napisano je u povelji Uneska. Manastiri Sopoćani i Đurđevi stupovi, Petrova crkva, ostaci tvrđave Ras i Gradina najznačajniji su deo te spomeničke celine. Svet su ponajviše zadivile treperave Sopoćanske freske: Uspenje Presvete Bogorodicena svetskojizložbi u Parizu, 1961. godine, proglašeno je za najlepšu fresku srednjeg veka.
PREFINjENA LEPOTICA
Dragulj islamske arhitekture je novopazarska Altun alem džamija (16. vek). Naziv Altun alem u prevodu znači – dragi kamen. Gradska tvrđava sa Starom čaršijom i kompleks oko džamije posebna su ambijentalna celina. Zanimljivo je to što je u izvornom obliku sačuvan i stari hamam (15. vek), koji je izgradio osnivač grada Isa-beg.
