Explore the Old City (Inner City), the historic heart of Baku and the oldest part of the capital, surrounded by well-preserved protective walls. In 2000, this area, including the stunning Palace of the Shirvanshahs and the iconic Maiden Tower, was designated Azerbaijan’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site. With a small community living within its walls, the Old City offers a fascinating glimpse into Baku’s rich past.Next, stroll along Nizami Street, a lively shopping and cultural hub that dates back to Baku’s 1864 town-planning project. Stretching over 3.5 kilometers through the city center, Nizami Street is lined with shops, cafes, and vibrant city life, making it a favorite for both locals and visitors.Then, visit Fountains Square, a popular public gathering spot in downtown Baku known for its numerous fountains originally built during Soviet times. This square comes alive especially after work hours and on weekends, offering a lively atmosphere in the heart of the city.
Start your day with a delicious breakfast at your hotel before heading out for an exciting Absheron Tour. Begin with a visit to the Ateshgah (Fire Worshippers Temple), a historic site used by Hindu and Zoroastrian communities for worship. This pentagonal complex, built in the 17th and 18th centuries, features a courtyard surrounded by monks’ cells and a central tetra pillar altar.
Next, travel to the famous Yanardag (Fire Mountain), located about 25 km north of Baku on the Absheron Peninsula. Known as the "Blazing Mountain," Yanardag is a natural gas fire that has been burning continuously on a hillside for centuries, symbolizing Azerbaijan’s title as the “Land of Fire.” Witness the mesmerizing flames dancing on the rocks, creating a truly unforgettable experience. After the tour, return to your accommodation in Baku for a comfortable stay.
