The location and infrastructure of the village is very good because it is 18 km away from the sea, 21 km from Cetinje, 36 km from Podgorica so that it connects the continental and coastal zones. The village is well known by many, where the Balsici built their endowments, in the 17th century. Bishop Danilo built his winter residence at Petrovic Monastery in the 15th century. Jelena Balšić built the Monastery in Donji Brčeli, within which is the church of Sv. Nicholas where Emperor Scepan Mali was buried.
