Spend a day exploring the Içeri Seher, the walled, old city of Baku. Its narrow streets, historic architecture, and tea cafes will give a great cultural experience. Climb Maiden’s Tower for the best view around. Then head out to Yanar Dag, “Fire Mountain”, and watch the sunset over a 33 foot wall of fire!
Go hiking outside the Persian mountain town of Lahic, then explore the town itself. Make sure to hit up the markets, especially for their one-of-a-kind copper products.
To experience traditional Azeri life, hike up to Kis, a tiny hillside village with a 12th century church.
