Nakhchivan
An autonomous republic and the tombs of Ajami Nakhchivani — a textbook of medieval architecture.
Place
A village two thousand metres up, with its own language and a herding route on the UNESCO list.
The site is in progress. The domain is reserved; design and texts are under way.
How it will look: each site gets its own colour scheme and structure.
Khinalig sits in the mountains of the Quba district. Its people speak Khinalug, a Caucasian language spoken nowhere else.
In 2023 the cultural landscape of Khinalig and the “Köç Yolu” transhumance route were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
