Back in Baku Azerbaijan for the second time. Well it was just an overnight flight layover. The plan was actually to visit Kiev, Ukraine first with a short layover at Dubai. However, due to the blockade of Qatar, I was forced to cancel the flight and looked for an alternate route to Kiev.
AZERBAIJAN - Travel Recommendation
Azerbaijan is a country in the Caucasus region of Eurasia. Eurasia is located at the crossroads of Western Europe and Eastern Asia, thus the name Eurasia. Azerbaijan is the first Caucasus countries that I visited which I stayed for 4D3N. I spent 2 days exploring Baku, its capital, before moving on to Shaki and crossed the border over to Georgia.AZERBAIJAN - Shamakhi
Shamakhi is an ancient Azerbaijan city and is the historical center of the region of Shirvan. The city is populated since 5th century BC and between the 9th – 16th century, it was the capital of Shirvan Empire. The capital of the province of the Russian Empire was also in Shamakhi until the devastating earthquake in 1859 where it was moved to Baku.AZERBAIJAN - Baku Downtown City Tour
Baku is the capital city of Azerbaijan and it is also the largest city in the world located below sea level. I’ve explored the Old City of Baku. It’s time to explore the modern city Baku really is.AZERBAIJAN - Ateshgah (Fire Temple) & Yanar Dag (Fire Mountain)
Azerbaijan’s emblem is the fire symbol and it is named “land of eternal fire” for good reasons. It used to be so rich in oil and gas, that oil was oozing out of the ground naturally and natural gas fire blazes continuously in several places.AZERBAIJAN - Baku Old City Tour
Azerbaijan is one of the countries in the Caucasus region. This country was once incorporated into the Soviet Union until it proclaimed its independence in 1991. Around 95% of the population are Muslims. It is one of the birthplaces of oil industry. Its rich oil and natural gas largely contribute to the country’s fortune.
