Sus, village in the Lachin District of Azerbaijan
Sus is a small village in Lachin District, Azerbaijan, made up of simple houses set among fields and scattered trees. The village sits close to the Hakari River, which runs along its edge.
The village was abandoned during a conflict and stayed empty for years before reconstruction work began. After fighting ended, new houses and facilities were built to allow families to return.
Sus sits in the Lachin District, a region that Azerbaijanis regard as part of their ancestral land. Families who have returned there are rebuilding daily life and giving the village an active community again.
The village has a school and a kindergarten, both easy to spot near the center. The river and the surrounding fields are accessible on foot and offer open ground for a walk.
The village has small hydroelectric stations that generate power locally, making it less dependent on outside networks. These installations were put in place as part of the rebuilding effort and are rarely found in settlements of this size.
