Бесплатная отмена за 24 часа
Hand-picked sights and iconic landmarks you cannot miss.
The living medieval heart of Baku, enclosed by 12th-century fortress ramparts. Walk through labyrinthine cobblestone alleys to discover the iconic Maiden Tower (Giz Galasi), the royal Palace of the Shirvanshahs, centuries-old caravanserais (Multani and Bukhara), traditional hamams, and atmospheric carpet shops.
A global architectural wonder designed by Pritzker Prize laureate Zaha Hadid. The fluid, sweeping neo-futuristic structure contains no sharp angles or columns, creating an ethereal flow between surrounding park terraces and soaring exhibition halls hosting world-class fine art, design, and vintage car collections.
Perched atop a natural amphitheater overlooking Baku Bay, the three glass skyscrapers resemble giant flickering tongues of fire, paying homage to Azerbaijan's identity as the 'Land of Fire'. Highland Park, accessible via the historic Baku funicular, offers the ultimate scenic viewpoint over the entire crescent coastline.
Stretching over 16 kilometers along the Caspian shore, Baku Boulevard is one of the longest and most splendid maritime promenades in Europe. Shaded by ancient baobabs, olive groves, and palm trees, it features the tranquil canals of Little Venice, the roll-shaped Carpet Museum, and waterfront cafes.
Witness Azerbaijan's eternal flame heritage on the Absheron peninsula. Ateshgah is a 17th-century castle-monastery built by Zoroastrian and Hindu pilgrims around subterranean natural gas outlets, while Yanar Dag features a 10-meter natural wall of continuous blazing flames that has burned without interruption for centuries.
The pulsating commercial and cultural soul of downtown Baku. Flanked by ornate 19th-century oil-boom limestone mansions blending Neo-Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance styles, this pedestrian avenue is filled with outdoor terraces, high-end fashion boutiques, lively street musicians, and grand fountains.
