  PHOTOS  from Shah Abbas Caravanserai located in liberated Fuzuli district

During their visit to liberated Fuzuli region, correspondents of AzVision.az also visited the village of Garghabazar. There are several historical monuments in the village, which has been under Armenian occupation for 28 years. One of them is Garghabazar Caravanserai.

Garghabazar Caravanserai was built in 1681 at the hillside, in the centre of Garghabazar village of Fuzuli district. Caravanserai building is 23.7 metres wide, 34.7 metres in length. Garghabazar Caravanserai is a single storeyed multi-yarded asymmetric caravanserai with arched rooms like corridors. The caravanserai was named Garghabazar after the village it was built in. Sometimes this historical monument is also called Shah Abbas Caravanserai. The architect of the monument is unknown.

A relic of the 17th century - Garghabazar Caravanserai was located on an ancient caravan route that was very important for the silk trade.

The caravanserai is considered one of the immovable historical monuments of the Republic of Azerbaijan.

After the occupation of Garghabazar village by the armed forces of the Republic of Armenia, the Armenians turned this historical and architectural monument into a cattle barn.

As it can be seen from the photos, the enemy looted this historical monument and turned it into a cattle barn as a sign of insult.
