The village of Temska is located about 15 km from Pirot. It is located at the foot of Stara Planina. In the vicinity of Temska, there are traces of settlements from the Roman era, as well as the medieval fortress and the monastery of St. George from the 14th century, popularly known as the "Tema monastery". The village was named after the medieval town of Temsko, which once existed there. About five minutes' walk from the village there is a large stone that divides the stream into two parts, while four kilometers from the village there is the beautiful waterfall Bukov dol, as well as the Temac HPP resort.
