What to expect
On the way, visit Diri Baba mausoleum in Maraza village. Diri Baba Mausoleum is two-storeyed mosque of the 15th century. For a long time, local residents believed in a legend that a sacred person called Diri Baba was buried here and remained imperishable.
Juma Mosque
Shamakhi Juma Mosque – On the way, you will have a stop in Shamakhi Juma Mosque that is built in 743 which is the most ancient known mosque in the Caucasus region. Juma Mosque (743 AD) is one of the tourist attractions often visited by travellers.
The Yeddi Gumbaz monument's name is defined be the number of gravestones in the crypt. Today the gravestones look like half-destroyed stone domes as if grown directly from under the ground in the middle of deserted graveyard. Therefore the atmosphere of this district seems a little mysterious.
Lahij is a notable place in Azerbaijan, with its authentic handicrafts traditions, particularly related to copper. The village's carpet and rug crafts are also well known in Azerbaijan and the South Caucasus. Lahij has an old sewage system (some experts claim that it was built 1000 – 1500 years ago). Due to frequent earthquakes local people have developed sophisticated and authentic construction techniques.
Ismayilli asma korpu
Visitors can see a suspension bridge constructed over the river. This place is very interesting for tourists to take photos during their Ismayilli tour. The location of suspension bridge is at the roadside around 11 km south of Lahıc settlement in Ismailli.
