President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev has reviewed the Flag Square in Agdash.
The tricolor flag with a star and the crescent moon was an attribute of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic and has once again become a symbol of the independence of Azerbaijan. This is a historical achievement of nationwide leader Heydar Aliyev. After Azerbaijan regained its independence, our national flag was first raised by great leader Heydar Aliyev in Nakhchivan. Respect and reverence for state symbols is the biggest asset left behind by the great leader. Now this flag flies proudly in the most prestigious international organizations and representative events. Today, every Azerbaijani considers the state flag a source of their pride. This is also explained by the great reverence with which President Ilham Aliyev treats state attributes. It is noteworthy that after the world’s tallest flagpole was established in Baku, flag squares were established in many regions of the country. The Flag Square in Agdash and the national flag hoisted there also attract attention with their grandeur.
It was noted that the construction of the Flag Square started in February last year and was completed in April 2014. The height of the flagpole is 52 meters. The pedestal lined with natural marble reflects the map, coat of arms and the national anthem of Azerbaijan. Elements of Azerbaijani national architecture were widely used in the process of construction.
The Flag Square has been extensively landscaped, green areas created and a modern lighting system installed. The square is well suited for the recreation of the people of Agdash.
