Damash, nestled in the mountains at an altitude of 1800 meters, is a truly picturesque district. One of the village's remarkable natural wonders is the endangered Lilium ledebourii flower, which blooms between the 10th and 20th of June. This rare species can only be found in two areas worldwide, Damash being one and the other in Azerbaijan. Surrounding the village are breathtaking forests and refreshing natural springs. While one of the springs is conveniently located in the residential area, others are scattered throughout the woods, inviting you to take leisurely strolls to discover their beauty.
