On Wednesday a new Congress Center located near the Heydar Aliyev Center opened in Baku.
A monitor of 405 square meters in area was installed in the lobby. The building has 50 monitors of different sizes.
The Center has 17 meeting rooms with a total capacity of 2,500 people. The main hall of the Center is designed for 3,500 seats. The hall is equipped with the most modern equipment.
Construction of the Center began in February 2014. Its total area is 6.2 hectares.
The cost of the object is not reported. Apparently, the center will be used for a variety of forums, but the capital already has quite advanced premises for that. -02D-
