    This is a little version of the Italian Venice. If you dislike to miss the feeling of riding on Gondolas along the Canals of Venice you can get this experience right here in Baku. It seems cool to try this boats in tranquil waters😀At nighttime is more romantic with those lightings surrounds you. A very genial idea!

    I found that place bit over rated as tourist. Though it was calm and relaxing experience but too mini to get venice feeling. Should have different name to align expectations accordingly. Just near to carpet museum so can be that on same day.
