Military Trophies Park in Baku
On the spring day of April 12, 2021, the long-awaited opening of the Military Trophies Park in Baku, which were captured as a result of the second Karabakh War, which broke out in September 2020, took place. The opening of the park was attended by the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, as well as veterans of the first and second Karabakh wars. The huge territory of five hectares allotted for the park is located in the boulevard zone of the White City, not far from the entertainment center “Megafun”. The park will be interesting for absolutely all age generations. Here you can familiarize yourself with captured and destroyed enemy vehicles. There are 300 of them. Among them are exhibits of heavy artillery equipment, transport and combat vehicles, tanks, air defense systems, fragments of Iskander missiles found in the occupied territories.
In addition to all this, enemy defensive lines, mined fields, tunnels, trenches and much more have been created on the territory of the park. There are also wax figures of the Armenian invaders and hundreds of helmets that were thrown by them during the retreat. At the entrance to the park, a huge stand with captured license plates of Armenian military equipment, taken as trophies by the soldiers of the Azerbaijani army, catches the eye. It was this trophy stand that opened the procession of military equipment at the parade dedicated to Victory Day on December 10, 2020. The avenue along which the park is located was renamed and is now called “Prospect 8 November”. This date is considered the end of the war and the establishment of peace on the territory of Karabakh. The President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, on the opening day of the Military Trophies Park, in his speech, said that everyone who visits the park will see the power of the Azerbaijani army, our willpower and all the severity of the victory gained.
Getting to the park by public transport will be a bit difficult, as the bus stops are located a little further from the park entrance.
