Lahij - ancient village of masters and handicrafts

Lahij - ancient village in Ismailly region.This medieval town with cobbled streets and squares is one of the most famous in the Caucasus and beyond its trade and shopping centers. Skilled potters and wood carvers make articles of copper, leather, embossing here. Especially Lahij is famous for manufactured cold steel and copper utensils, decorated with engraved ornament. And to this day there are a dozen workshops, where hereditary blacksmiths in the eyes of astonished tourists make various household items. The very first quarter of Lahij was laid in the III-IV centuries. It is curious that the city has a water supply and sewerage system, which is no less than 1,500 years! None of the residents know where the sewerage starts and where it ends, and by what principle it works, which does not prevent the collector from functioning for many centuries. Now Lahij is a historical and architectural monument, protected by the state and the appearance of the settlement is preserved in its original form
