At Equera Travel & Tours, we invite you to explore the stunning capital of Azerbaijan, Baku, a city where modernity meets ancient traditions. Situated on the shores of the Caspian Sea, Baku is a dazzling blend of futuristic architecture, rich history, and vibrant culture.

Baku – A City of Contrasts

Baku is a city of contrasts, where ancient sites coexist with ultra-modern buildings. As you wander through its streets, you’ll discover a fascinating blend of old-world charm and cutting-edge design. The Icherisheher (Old City), a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a maze of narrow cobblestone streets, ancient mosques, and historical buildings. The Maiden Tower, a symbol of Baku, stands tall amidst the old city and offers panoramic views of the modern skyline.

In contrast, the Flame Towers dominate the skyline. These iconic towers, shaped like flames, light up the city at night with spectacular LED displays. Baku’s blend of the ancient and modern creates an atmosphere that is both timeless and forward-looking.

Explore Baku’s Cultural and Historic Treasures

Baku is home to numerous landmarks and museums that showcase its rich cultural heritage. Visit the Azerbaijan Carpet Museum, where you can see exquisite examples of traditional Azerbaijani weaving. The Heydar Aliyev Center, designed by the famous architect Zaha Hadid, is an architectural marvel that houses exhibitions of contemporary art and culture.

For those interested in history, the Baku History Museum offers insights into the city’s development, while the Gobustan National Park showcases ancient rock carvings that date back thousands of years. This open-air museum is a testament to Azerbaijan’s ancient civilization and is a must-see for history lovers.

Baku’s Vibrant Waterfront and Modern Attractions

Baku’s Caspian Sea coast offers visitors stunning views and a vibrant waterfront. Stroll along the Baku Boulevard, where you can enjoy the beautiful promenade, visit the Baku Ferris Wheel, or take a boat tour on the Caspian Sea.
