Discover the rich historical heritage of Karabakh on a guided tour. Begin your journey in Shusha, the former capital of the Karabakh Khanate. Explore the Shusha Fortress, built in the 18th century by Panah Ali Khan, and admire the breathtaking views from Jidir Plain, a plateau in the southern part of the city.

Visit the Gohar Agha Mosques, built at the end of the 19th century by the daughter of the Karabakh Khan. These mosques, known for their twin minarets, were damaged during the First Karabakh War but have been restored, and one of them – the Yukari (Upper) Gohar Agha Mosque – is now a national heritage site.

Next, head to the Juma Mosque in Agdam, one of the main historical and architectural landmarks of the city. The building stands out with its two minarets and distinctive Karabakh architectural style. After recent restoration, it has once again become a place of pilgrimage.

Continue to the Askeran Fortress, located in the heart of Karabakh. Built in the 18th century, it served as a strategic defensive structure. Finally, visit Khankendi, a city in Karabakh that attracts tourists with its unique history, nature, and culture. Situated on a high plateau surrounded by picturesque mountains, it is particularly appealing to nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.
