The magnificent Monument of Dada Gorgud, which was built in “Tabriz” street of Nakhchivan city, has become a favorite place for both the visitors and local residents. Since Dada Gorgud is a common value of the Turkic world, visitors from Turkey, Iran and Central Asia are especially fond of this monument and put flowers in front of it.

In general, every monument erected in our city has its own spirit, its voice. If in one side of the city, hero of the people, Babek threatens enemies with his sword on the horse, in the other side Koroglu introduces the heroic history of our people to the world. Dada Gorgud monument is a vivid example of the value given by our people to saz, poem, historical past. The monument which author is Honored Art Worker of Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic Elman Jafarov has a height of more than 5 meters. Dada Gorgud, who holds a gobuz (an old Azerbaijani instrument) in his hand on the postament, was depicted into deep thought. The monument was erected in 1999 in honor of the 1300^th anniversary of the “Kitabi-Dada Gorgud” epos.

Mugam art is an important part of our cultural heritage. The great care shown to our culture in the autonomous republic over the past few years has covered this art too. Our mugham performers make contribution to the development of our national musical culture by taking advantage of this care provided by our state. At the International Mugam Center in Baku, the concert program called “Naqshi-jahan sadasi” (Nagshi-jahan voice), along with the memorable performances of the mugham performers of the autonomous republic, has shown great affection for this art.

First of all, it should be noted that the concert program held at the International Mugham Center on November 11 attracted attention with the high level of organization. We had an interview with Abulfaz Mammadov, artistic director of mugham ensemble and Ehtiram Huseynov, honored artist of Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic before the event. Abulfaz Mammadov said that it is our duty to study our mughams, which are the spiritual wealth of our people, to take our national culture as the citizens of Azerbaijan. Today, a number of works are underway to instill the art of mugham to young people, and to increase their interest in this art, and large-scale events are being carried out. Organizing a concert program with the participation of prominent scientists, well-known musicians and mugham enthusiasts is also a continuation of those events.

Valuable exhibits are preserved in the Museum of State Flag

One of the dignified, endless feelings of our people is undoubtedly the love of the flag. Historically, this love has been a great feeling for the Azerbaijani people, and it has become a great value. The flag, which reflects the integrity of the country, the independence of the nation, has been regarded as the national ideology of the nation’s national identity, language, culture, spiritual and moral morality.

On November 17, 1990 by the initiative of national leader Heydar Aliyev the tricolor flag of the independent Azerbaijan Republic was raised. After the national leader’s return to political power in Azerbaijan for the second time in 1993, our flag was approved as a symbol of our national sovereignty. Since then, many laws and orders have been signed on protection and preservation of our flag. Today, as a continuation of our respect for our sacred flag, which is the bearer of our statehood and national values, a number of commendable works are being carried out by the relevant orders of the President and large-scale measures are being taken. Establishing the Flag Square in the capital city of Baku is a sign of love and respect for our flag. In this respect, the Order “On the Establishment of the State Flag Square and Museum in the city of Nakhchivan”, signed by Vasif Talibov, the Chairman of the Supreme Majlis of Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic on August 22, 2014, is of great importance.
