In the exhibition space, visitors can explore the exhibition ‘A Journey into the World of Azerbaijani Carpets’. Artistically crafted modern carpets that combine traditional patterns with contemporary design offer an insight into Azerbaijan’s rich carpet-making tradition. The exhibition highlights the cultural significance of the carpet-weaving craft and its development up to the present day.
