10 days in Baku Itinerary

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.

Venture out of the city with trips to Gobustan (Gobustan State Reserve & Mud Volcanoes). And it doesn't end there: take in the pleasant sights at Baku Boulevard, examine the collection at Heydar Aliyev Center, don't miss a visit to Yanardag, and contemplate the long history of Baku Old City.
