Architec­ture

Karbalai Yusifli dome was dest­royed by Arme­nians in 1988 after mass de­por­tation of Azer­baijanis from the village.

The ancient Narimanli cemetery is rich in monuments covering different periods of history. One of these monuments is the dome of Karbalai Yusifli, belonging to the village's deep-rooted tribe. The dome was built during Tsarist Russia. Karbalai Yusifli dome is of the same type and size as the dome belonging to the Hajali tribe. Above the graves belonging to Karbalai Yusifli tribes, this 4 m x 4 m, 5 m x 5 m, 4-5 m high grave building was visible from a long distance and attracted attention due to its appearance and height.

The village has been an Azer­baijani settle­ment since the end of the 14th century and the beginning of the 15th century. Karbalai Yu­sif­li's dome is im­portant as a ma­terial and cul­tural heritage of Azerbaijan.
