What to Expect and Is It Worth Visiting
While walking around the city, you can pay attention to the large paintings on the walls of residential buildings. The art is called street art or Street painting, and is becoming more and more popular in Derbent, and such images are called murals.
Every year the festival "Wall" is held here, which attracts many artists. After the event, the city is transformed, the dull facades of houses are decorated with new colorful paintings, which will be admired for a long time not only by residents of the city, but also by guests. All the drawings are made in local traditions, whether it's a girl with a jug or a cup on the table. In total, we counted 14 houses, however, their number will increase. You can see the main part walking along H. Tagiev Street, along the embankment.
