The valley is located next to Maraza Village and is worth a stop when travelling to Western Azerbaijan.
The history is mixed but the location offers a decent photo op.

It was an interesting site, well worth stopping off for a look. It's a bit of an anomaly as, as I understand it, in the Muslim religion there are not supposed to be monuments / shrines, etc to people. This one is to a wise, good man and seems to get around the rules.

An interesting spot to visit.
During our visit, there was quite a lot of renovation taking place which is good to see.

We visited this place on our way to Shamakhi....the mausoleum is built directly in the cliff face...the stairs are very high & uneven....From the top you get a view of surrounding area.

Set in partially dramatic, partially pastoral landscape, this türbe can be a spiritual place when you are alone. Then you can quietly climb up the stairs leading into the building and discover its secrets. I enjoyed looking at the decorative ornaments of the windows, and others. Some of them had been demolished. A Quran was lying in a corner with carpets. A young man with a broom tried to talk to the visitors. Suddenly a coach stopped in the parking lot. Many tourists sprang out of it and rushed into the türbe. They hurried up the narrow staircase with the high steps and first conquered the parts of the roof around the dome, then the plateau next to it. All the quiet eas gone. A few minutes later they rushed down again, got into their bus and went away. The place belonged to me again.

This mausoleum is off the beaten track and built in the 15th century. When we visited, one of the windows had just been vandalised. The stairs leading up are uneven and steep with no banister. Inside, there are even steeper stairs to the next floor. Not for the feint-hearted.

Located on the way to Sheki from baku, it was built 15th century, for the memorial of Diri Baba, with 2 stories, opposite side is one ancient cemetery. The entry and the stairs inside is very narrow and stiff, not so easy to go to the top, where can have better view of the cemetery and the small town around. We still could see plenty caves where said ancient people lived in before. When we arrived we still see some snow at the hill around

Situated in the Maraza district, this mausoleum is built directly into the cliff face and would have been the local version of the English Folly. It is small and built over two stories. Health and Safety officers would have a coronary at the access and chances for accidents. The interior is not that interesting but grants access to the very steep stairway to the roof access where you can walk around the exterior cupola, if you dare. The views are OK, there is nothing much to see from the top.
Overall the site is not in very good repair and if you miss it then you are not going to fret.
