梨花落🍀:“As the first site in Azerbaijan to be awarded the title of World Cultural Heritage, the Old City of Baku has completely preserved medieval buildings such as the 12th-century city walls, the Maiden Tower, and the Shirvanshah Palace, reflecting the integration of Persian, Arab, and Caucasian civilizations. The streets in the old city are mostly paved with uneven stones or cobblestones. Walking slowly on them, you can slowly appreciate the ancient buildings and unique specialty shops on both sides of the street. Occasionally, the locals will greet you enthusiastically with a not-so-standard "hello". This experience is wonderful!”
梨花落🍀:“The Bustan Rock Paintings are located in the Gobustan Mountain area of Azerbaijan and are a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site. In this rocky highland, there are more than 6,000 exquisite rock carvings. These carvings have smooth lines, allowing people to see rock art from 4,000 to 20,000 years ago. The earliest rock paintings can be traced back to 20,000 years ago, and the latest has a history of 5,000 years. The time span extends from the early Paleolithic Age to the Middle Ages. They are witnesses to the life, culture, and worldview of the ancient Azerbaijanis, and provide precious information for studying the historical changes and social development of the region from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages.”

zinnia_615:“One of the oldest buildings in the old city, it is adjacent to the Caspian Sea coast. It has 8 floors and each floor window has defense facilities. It is also one of Azerbaijan's national business cards.

zinnia_615:“Juma Mosque, located in the old city of Baku, is relatively easy for tourists to visit. It was built in the 12th century. According to archaeological research, it was built on the site of a Zoroastrian temple. It has been repaired and expanded many times in history. The entire part of the mosque today was rebuilt in 1899.”
梨花落🍀:“Azerbaijan means "the country of fire" in Persian, and has a profound fire culture. The Fire Temple, located on the outskirts of the capital Baku, was built in the 17th and 18th centuries by Persians or Indian immigrants who believed in Zoroastrianism and was originally used for sacrificial activities. Zoroastrianism (Zoroastrianism) originated in ancient Persia 3,000 years ago. The Fire Temple is a concrete manifestation of its beliefs. It has now been transformed into a museum to display the history of Zoroastrianism. Tickets are required to enter and the price is 9 manats, about RMB 35.”
Opening hours: 10:00-18:00(Tickets available until 17:00)
风筝爱旅行:“The National History Museum of Azerbaijan is very small and is located in a very inconspicuous building. I am interested in how it has played its role in recording the development of Azerbaijan, especially the war and conflicts with Armenia, as well as the relations with Russia, Turkey and China. The first map in the exhibition is quite meaningful, declaring the sovereignty of the disputed territories between Azerbaijan and Armenia. This makes me look forward to going to the National Museum of Armenia next time, what kind of voice will it make? This may be one of the charms of the museum [sly smile]”
