Baku/16.01.18/Turan: Italian architect Laura Peretti and Sandro Teti have developed and proposed a project for the construction of the state historical and cultural reserve "Yanardag". The idea of creating a modern museum complex was previously voiced by the head of state Ilham Aliyev. According to the PR of United-Cultures Baku, the Italian project is a concept of the Museum of Fire and Energy, symbolizing the natural wealth and historical specifics of Azerbaijan. In addition, the project of Italian architects and designers allows using the future museum and as a theatrical stage in the open air. The project is proposed to be made of metal structures and glass.
"Yanardag" is a natural eternal flame in 30 km. from Baku. This is one of the many places in Azerbaijan where natural gas breaks out of the earth and burns for many centuries. -02D-
