Amir-Agin Han
A han was the inn of the Ottoman road — lodging for merchants and their animals around a courtyard. The Amir-Agin Han recalls the age when Novi Pazar, the “new bazaar,” lived by long-distance trade.
Why it matters
Standing among the shops of the old town, it is a reminder that this was a caravan city on the route between the Adriatic coast and the interior of the Balkans, where goods, languages and faiths met.
Essentials
- Part of the old-town walking route
- Best seen with the bazaar and hamam
- Ask your guide about the caravan trade
- Ground floor shops still in use
