Baku

— 9 nights
Baku Old City ©

The City of Eternal Flames, the City of Winds

A truly contemporary city criss-crossed by history, Baku offers everything from the modern elegance of the Flame Towers to the medieval UNESCO-listed Old City at its core.
Change things up with these side-trips from Baku: Yeddi Gumbaz Mausoleum (in Shamakhi), Mardakan Fortress (in Mardakan) and Gobustan (Gobustan State Reserve & Diri Baba Mausoleum). There's much more to do: steep yourself in history at Baku Old City, explore the striking landscape at Yanardag, explore the ancient world of Ateshgah Fire Temple, and examine the collection at Heydar Aliyev Center.

A holiday in Azerbaijan allows intrepid travelers to discover a history-steeped country sitting at the crossroads of Southeastern Europe and Southwest Asia, an area once controlled by a succession of ancient empires. With its dual Eurasian character, Azerbaijan remains a highly intriguing destination, with tourism one of the top contributors to the country's booming economy. Many begin their tour of Azerbaijan in World Heritage-listed Baku, a cosmopolitan city boasting innovative architecture and a well-preserved historic core. A short drive out of this thriving capital, you can explore timeless villages surrounded by thick orchards and flanked by the majestic Caucasus Mountains.
