4 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.

Step out of Baku to go to Gobustan and see Gobustan State Reserve, which is approximately 1h 5 min away. There's still lots to do: see the interesting displays at Heydar Aliyev Center, go for a walk through Baku Boulevard, explore the ancient world of Ateshgah Fire Temple, and get the lay of the land with Walking tours.
