In Astara, there is a village called Siyov, hidden in the forest and home to only seven families. The village is accessible only on foot or by horse, as there is no road for cars.

Residents use horses and mules for transportation. Movement becomes very difficult in rainy and snowy weather. Solar panels provide electricity, storing energy during the day for lighting at night.

Reporters from "Report" visited the village and made a video report. Oxu.Az presents it.
