How it will look: each site gets its own colour scheme and structure.

In brief

Lahij lies in the Ismayilli district, in the gorge of the Girdimanchay. The village is known for coppersmithing; the workshops still line the street.

Its old water system, stone-paved lanes and its own Tat language have made Lahij one of the most studied villages in the country.
