The district has no historic walled town centre, so the best walks are a stroll through Jagodina, a park by the zoo and two nature walks in the hills and on the Grza river. Wear comfortable shoes with grip, and expect Cyrillic-only signs outside the towns. Jagodina town centre Jagodina is the district seat, at 43. https://mad-traveller.com/posts/monasteries-and-sights-of-pomoravlje/?v=1 Sat, 31 Oct 2026 14:58:38 +0000 https://mad-traveller.com/posts/monasteries-and-sights-of-pomoravlje/?v=1 The best sights in Pomoravlje District are medieval monasteries, a protected waterfall and a pair of industrial and natural sites that reward a slower look.
