Jewish Cemetery #2, Quba, Azerbaijan
The second of three Jewish cemeteries (בית קברות, yəhudi qəbiristanlığı) in Quba (קובה), Azerbaijan (Azərbaycan).
Description
There are three very large cemeteries in Quba. Unfortunately through interviews, no consensus was ever achieved as to the proper names of the cemeteries. The three other names reported were the Gulgati, Gusari, and Alchi cemeteries. During Tisha B'Av descendants from all over the world come to their family gravesites to mourn.
