Redirecting from one folder to another nginx?

Question

Nginx

Hello. There are two folders on the hosting. Conditionally folder1 and folder2. Folder1 contains pictures. I need the user to go to www.site.ru/folder2/image.png and get to www.site.ru/folder1/image.png. Is it possible to make redirects from one folder to another?

Answer 1

rewrite or alias
rewrite ^/folder2/(.*) /folder1/$1;

location /folder2/ {
    alias /path/to/folder1/;
}
