Signification
A thin or tight road.
Contexte culturel
In Baku's Old City (Icherisheher), some 'dar küçələr' are so narrow they are called 'the street where neighbors can kiss' because the balconies are so close. In Sheki, narrow streets are often paved with river stones (çay daşı), making them beautiful but slippery when wet. Living in a 'dar küçə' often implies a lack of parking, which is a major topic of conversation among modern Bakuvians. Azerbaijani poets often use 'dar küçə' to represent the constraints of tradition or the intimacy of first love.
