opportunities to demonstrate Azerbaijan's determination in
restoring liberated territories, according to officials.

prioritized restoration work, including the restoration and
preservation of the city's historical and cultural heritage.
The Shusha General Plan was completed quickly, the bust of the
great poet Molla Panah Vagif and the museum-mausoleum complex were
restored to their original state, the house-museum of vocalist
Bulbul and the statue of composer Uzeyir Hajibayli were opened,
historical, religious, and architectural monuments, music
festivals, and the organization of the Vagif Poetry Days in front
of the magnificent mausoleum were also restored.
President Aliyev declared the historical Shusha city the
country's cultural capital on May 7, 2021. An immediate inventory
of the damage to the city, its historical and cultural heritage,
and its natural environment was completed, and restoration work has
begun. The Shusha district administration is vested with special
powers to ensure the efficiency of restoration work. The city is
