Etymology
Yengicə (Yengija) is the phonetic form of the name Yenicə (Yenija). The villages called Yenicə and Yengicə were created as a result of the population building new settlements after moving out from the main village, mostly due to deficiency of the soil. The name means "the new village".[2]
Historical monuments
Yengija bath was built at the end of the 18th century by Tovuz Khanum from Shahtakht.[3] The total area of the rectangular bath is 650 square meters. The building was built using baked bricks and lime measuring 19x19x5 cm.[4] The bath building is divided into two octagonal halls and two auxiliary rooms adjacent to them. The hearth of the bathhouse is located in the south of the building.
The building of the bathhouse was restored from March 2017 to September 2018.[5] Currently, it is not used as a bathroom. In the historical building, service was organized in 7 different areas.
