Located on the rock of Maheze Village, Diri Baba is said to be able to mitigate disease; then visit the nearby Hillwan Shaling family cemetery site Yeddi Gumabez Mausoleum, built in 1402, the king family cemetery, there are seven simple domed mausoleums.
I didn't want to write, but many places written on the Internet were wrong. This cliff tomb is in Gobustan, not in the middle of Shamaki, that is, Baku and Shamaki. Get off at the turntable of Gobustan and go north on the main road, uphill, about 1 km, there is a dirt road on the right, turn right. You will see a substation, then walk for a while and turn left. Everyone here knows it. Dilibaba, they also call it,
The town of Shamaki on the ancient Silk Road. You know, it was once the capital of the Hill Wansha dynasty. Here, the diri baba mausoleum on the rock wall is one of the most important symbols of faith here. It was built in 1402 as the King's Garden of the Shamaki Dynasty. The mausoleum was built on the hillside. It has a two-story structure and a circular dome. To reach the top, you need to climb steps as high as your knees. Each step is only half a foot wide. The mausoleum is placed on the high ground. It is sparsely populated, but the scenery is excellent. I am afraid it will be the cover of the next lonely planet Transcaucasus edition, after entering the second floor to see the appearance of people living here (estimated tombkeeper or practitioner), imagine the wilderness of mountains, the night people quiet alone mausoleum, no firm faith, estimated to stay for a minute. Looking at the typical Transcaucasian scenery, the steps have been polished for hundreds of years, and the long time and space have turned to the stars. How many solar and moon rotations can this window edge witness? But people still flock to it, things are human and non-human, and faith remains unchanged. In fact, Shamaki is the ancient capital of Azerbaijan, and a major earthquake in history has been completely destroyed. The cemetery is quiet, indisputable, and remote, but you can see that there are still many locals who come to visit. After all, this is the spiritual sustenance and ideal destination of their faith. Arrive at the top of the rock, take a souvenir photo, the scenery is infinite.
