“Icharishahar is the core of Baku. It is impossible to imagine Baku without Icharishahar. However, from the point of view of administrative division, a special management mechanism was established in Icharishahar a few years ago by my order,” President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said on March 3 while receiving Shahin Seyidzade in a video format after his appointment as Chairman of the Board of the Icharishahar State Historical-Architectural Reserve, SİA informs.
"From the administrative point of view, Icharishahar is an independent administrative unit, but it is a part of Baku. The beauty of Baku today is no secret, and every foreign visitor admires Baku. I am sure that every foreign visitor, especially those who come to Baku for the first time, definitely visits Icharishahar, gets acquainted with Icharishahar and its monuments and see once again that the Azerbaijani people are a great people, an ancient people, a talented people. Only such a great and talented nation can create such a magnificent, world-famous monument. I want to say again that every part of Icharishahar is important, and at the same time, Icharishahar is not just an open-air museum.
People live in Icharishahar, they have lived there for centuries. We all know that the foundation of Baku was laid in Icharishahar, and in ancient times there were no buildings beyond the walls of the Fortress. Today, people live in Icharishahar, and, of course, great work is being done and will be done for their comfort. At the same time, I want to say once again that Icharishahar is a very attractive place for Baku residents, as well as all Azerbaijani citizens and foreign visitors, and that is why there is a huge influx of visitors to Icharishahar every day.
Taking all this into account, the work should be organized in such a way that the people living there do not suffer, and at the same time to create the necessary conditions for tourists and visitors. Significant work has been done in this direction in recent years. The protection of the historical image of Icharishahar is under my personal control, and I am confident that under your leadership, the Department will successfully fulfill the new tasks ahead. Icharishahar will live and must live forever. Both we and the generations to come will be rightfully proud of Icharishahar,” said the head of state.
