Leskovac, Industrial city in Jablanica District, Serbia
Leskovac spreads across the valley of the South Morava River, with the Hisar Hill rising above the urban center at 228 meters elevation.
The settlement evolved from ancient Glubočica into a major textile manufacturing center during the 19th century, earning recognition as Serbia's Manchester.
