Pirot has woven kilim rugs on horizontal looms for centuries, a technique using tightly packed geometric wool patterns that UNESCO recognised as intangible cultural heritage, and workshops in the town still produce them by hand for buyers who travel specifically for the craft rather than passing through by chance.
The town also gives its name to a particular style of kajmak, a clotted cream cheese made from the skimmed layer of scalded milk, considered among the finest in Serbia and sold in the local market alongside Pirot's other regional speciality, pirotski peglana kobasica, a flattened, pressed sausage. Sitting close to the Bulgarian border on the old road east, Pirot also sees steady cross-border transit traffic.

What Bus Hire Costs in Pirot
As a rough guide, a minibus (up to 19 seats) in Pirot runs around 13,000 to 22,000 RSD per day, a midi-coach (around 29 seats) around 23,000 to 39,000 RSD per day, and a full-size coach (49 seats) around 34,000 to 57,000 RSD per day.
