On December 19th, the traditional exhibition "Through History: Museum of Architecture and History" opened at Port Baku Mall.
Every year, NARGIS Publishing House hosts significant events spanning various aspects of public life. This year's gingerbread installation commemorates the Republic of Azerbaijan's successful efforts in restoring its territorial integrity and sovereignty – a triumph of justice paving the way for lasting peace in the region.
The project aims to highlight the significance of this event for our country and create a magical atmosphere for children and adults on New Year's Eve. Ulviyya Mahmud was the visionary behind and leader of this project.
The gingerbread installation takes the form of a map of Azerbaijan, showcasing the most memorable recent cultural, social, and sporting events in the country. Notable occasions like diverse regional festivals, the Fuzuli International Airport inauguration, Formula 1 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, 2015 European Games, and other culturally significant landmarks are featured. Crafted from edible gingerbread, marzipan, chocolate, and other confectionery, the exhibit allows visitors to immerse themselves in a festive ambiance and get a charge of good mood.
