Accommodation “Rajski Konaci”<br />

The region <strong>of</strong> Takovo, known for its tumultuous past and<br />

hedonistic beauty, is the pioneer and champion <strong>of</strong> rural tourism<br />

in <strong>Serbia</strong>. Gentle hills, picturesque villages, hospitable people<br />

and the winding paths which present you with different scenery<br />

invite you to explore this charming corner <strong>of</strong> <strong>Serbia</strong>, which<br />

you will be reluctant to leave. The Pustinja Monastery is three<br />

kilometres away from Poćuta, a place in the regional road Valjevo<br />

– Bajina Bašta. There, on the final slopes <strong>of</strong> Povlen, you will see<br />

countless raspberry fields. Right after the Pustinja Gorge, the<br />

Jablanica River enters a spacious valley, only to come into the<br />

narrow Jovanjska Gorge in some five or six kilometres. In the<br />

gorge there are visible high contours <strong>of</strong> the future dam which will<br />

block the Jablanica and form a large lake. The future lake will be a<br />

long-term solution to the drinking water problems in the region<br />

<strong>of</strong> Valjevo, most likely opening new possibilities for tourists who<br />

decide to visit this beautiful place.<br />

The ethno household <strong>of</strong> the Jevtović family called “Rajski konaci”<br />

in the village <strong>of</strong> Leušići is a typical representative <strong>of</strong> the region<br />

<strong>of</strong> Takovo. Gourmets, long distance hikers, party seekers and<br />

families with small children can all find their place in this heavenly<br />

household. And they are sure to come back. The lodgings have<br />

extended their <strong>of</strong>fer with a conference hall for smaller groups<br />

<strong>of</strong> people. In 2010 this household was awarded the “Tourism<br />

Flower” for their excellence and contribution in the development<br />

<strong>of</strong> tourism. In the immediate vicinity <strong>of</strong> Leušići, there is also the<br />

village <strong>of</strong> Koštunići with a new ethno complex which includes a<br />

large swimming pool.<br />
