[1] The Cross of Jovan Vladimir is carried every year during August[1] on the Feast of Pentecost from the village of Velji Mikulići to the summit of Rumija.

Traditionally, in addition to Orthodox Christians of the Bar area, Catholics and Muslims also take part in the procession and ascent to the summit of Rumija.

[1] So-called the Doclean Academy of Sciences and Arts issued an announcement that accused Amfilohije of appropriating the location as a Serbian site and criticised the action as "vandalistic" and "clerico-fascist".
