Located in southwestern Azerbaijan, Zangilan is known for its rich historical heritage and natural beauty. The city was liberated from Armenian occupation on October 20, 2020, during the 44-day Patriotic War.

Since its liberation, extensive reconstruction and development efforts have been underway to restore the city and support the return of former residents.
