Baku/11.01.21/Turan: The Main Department of Architecture and Urban Development of the city of Baku announced the winners of the first stage of the competition "Architecture of the Absheron Village".
At the current stage, the best architectural solutions have been selected for three villages: Ramana, Pirshagi and Amirjan.

Along with the facade solutions of existing buildings, it is proposed to increase the attractiveness of the village for tourists by improving the corresponding infrastructure.
The winning project for Pirshagi offers a solution to the lack of public space and the creation of pedestrian and bicycle lanes for road construction.
The winning project of the Ramana settlement is focused on the area near the medieval castle, emphasizing the history of the settlement, and involves the restoration of non-residential premises, taking into account the traditional way of life.

Yet, with the rising cost of living, many avid readers are finding it increasingly challenging to afford their favorite titles. As a result, second-hand books, e-books, and online international orders have become popular alternatives for those seeking affordable access to literature.

In a world increasingly marred by the effects of climate change, art has emerged as an unexpected, yet powerful, platform for raising awareness and sparking conversations on environmental responsibility. One such endeavor is the exhibition "A Different Kind of Climate," currently on display at Kapellhaus with support from the Goethe-Institut. The timing of this exhibition is no coincidence, aligning with the upcoming COP29, the UN Climate Change Conference to be held in Baku from November 11 to 22. The exhibition seeks to engage audiences on pressing ecological issues, blending local and international perspectives.
