Kosovo Pomoravlje ( Serbian: Косовско Поморавље / Kosovsko Pomoravlje, " Pomoravlje of Kosovo"), or Anamorava ( Albanian: Anamoravë), is a valley in Kosovo, in the southern part of the District of Gjilan surrounding the Binačka Morava River. It stretches eastward to the Preševo Valley in southern Serbia. The mountains in this region, rising to an altitude of 1,000–1,200 metres (3,300–3,900 ft), border the Skopska Crna Gora region in north of Skopje. [2] Gjilan, Kamenica, Novo Brdo and Viti are municipalities located in the region. The region gave its name to Kosovo-Pomoravlje District, which largely corresponds to its successor District of Gjilan in Kosovo. It is known for recording the lowest temperature in Kosovo: −32.5 °C (−26.5 °F), on 25 January 1963. [3]

Name

The region is known as Kosovsko Pomoravlje (Косовско Поморавље, "Morava Valley of Kosovo") in Serbian and as Lugina e Anamoravës[ citation needed] ("Valley of the side of Binač Morava") in Albanian. Its name is derived from the Binačka Morava river, which flows through northern North Macedonia, eastern Kosovo and southern Serbia as part of the Great Morava river system.

Geography

Kosovo-Pomoravlje District was a district of Serbia until 1999. After the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo took control in 1999, it was transformed into the District of Gjilan. Anamorava is about 50 kilometres (31 mi) long and 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) wide. It is bordered by the Skopska Crna Gora mountains in the south and the Goljak in the north, and borders Kosovo field in the west. On the east, it borders the Morava Valley. The region's largest city is Gjilan.

The region can be divided into Lower Kosovo Pomoravlje and Upper Kosovo Pomoravlje, which is also part of the Skopska Crna Gora region. [4]

The region includes part of the valley and the Skopska Crna Gora region and Koznik mountains. Gjilan has six municipalities and 287 smaller settlements. [5] The spa in Klokot has several thermal springs valued for their medicinal qualities. [6]

At an altitude of 210 metres (690 ft) above sea level, the region has a Mediterranean sub-continental (Koppen classification: humid subtropical) climate with light winds (usually from the southeast). Rainfall is light, and winter often brings rain and wet snow from the north; southern and southwestern winds tend to bring warm, dry weather. The region's average annual temperature is 12.2 °C (54.0 °F). January's average is 1.2 °C (34.2 °F), and July's is 22.6 °C (72.7 °F). [7] [8][ better source needed]
