It is composed of 7 administrative districts, and the districts are separated into municipalities – joint provinces of a city and a number of smaller surrounding towns that were the same size as the former Hungarian counties.

The events that inspired Kalman Mikszath to write his novel The Young Noszty’s Affair with Mary Tóth took place right there in Stara Moravica. In the novel there is a tavern called “The Golden Pheasant”, which used to be in operation in 1880s under the name “The Golden Barrel”, and nowadays there is a bakery in that building.The baron family Ungar – in the novel called Toth – on the main street, had a wing of their Pačir-road house removed, but the other huge wing kept its former glory owing to the Baptist church.

Pačir is located in the municipality of Bačka Topola, on the north ascents of Telečka plateau, on the banks of river Krivaja.

Tornjoš is located in the municipality of Senta. The village flourished already in 1479, but by the time of the Ottoman reign it was left uninhabited. Tornjoš is the only village in this region that wasn’t destroyed at the time of the battle at Mohač, but it had already been labelled as uninhabited in the tax register. At that time, a self-proclaimed prophet, and later a tzar, Jovan Nenad, called The Black Man, after being wounded, seeks shelter in Tornjoš, but Valentin Terek, a feudal landowner from Subotica, decapitates him there. There is an ethno house in the village and an exhibition that shows old household objects and tools which depict the former village life.

Kupusina (Bácskertes) got its Hungarian name after its farmer inhabitants, while its original name comes from the immigrant Slovakian inhabitants.

Colorful weddings which keep the old traditions alive are considered family events of immense importance. The unique speech of the medieval Palocs is still used today, a lot of traditional folk songs have been preserved, such as folk ballads and prayers among the religious people. Kupusina is the richest village in Bačka when it comes to sacral monuments in the open. Old household objects can be seen in the ethnographic museum, while the dance tradition has been kept by folk dance groups.

Doroslovo is positioned in the Sombor municipality. In the village there is a Holy Well, one of the biggest pilgrimage spots in Vojvodina. Since the old days, next to the Mostong stream, there has been a little well, around which you can see the remains of a former church and a monastery. The well has been a favorite spot of the pilgrims since the middle ages. In 1792 a man from Bogojevo had his sight returned after he washed his eyes with the water from the well. Ever since then, there have been around 80 miracles at the Holy Well.
