What to see in Baku?

Baku blends the ancient and the modern in one city. Icheri Sheher (the Old City) is a UNESCO site known for its stone lanes and the Maiden Tower. The Flame Towers light up the whole sky at night. The boulevard along the Caspian Sea is ideal for a walk. Outside the city lie the Gobustan rock carvings and mud volcanoes.

Cultural ties between Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan run deep, and the language and cuisine feel familiar, so the trip is easy and comfortable.

Do you need a visa?

Always check the entry requirements for Uzbek citizens visiting Azerbaijan through official sources, since the rules can change. Confirm the current visa and passport requirements before you plan.
