Cultural heritage is often best understood through its vibrant expressions—be it food, music, dance, or the intricate details of traditional clothing. This notion was vividly brought to life at the fifth annual “FantazEU” Cultural Heritage Festival, organized by the Delegation of the European Union (EU) to Azerbaijan. The festival’s centerpiece, an exhibition of European national costumes, offered visitors a unique glimpse into the historical and cultural tapestries of Europe while underscoring the unifying power of art and tradition.
