Baku reveals its old soul and modern spirit through historic streets, revived neighbourhoods and a multicultural identity shaped by centuries of coexistence.
Baku is a city of contrasts, where ancient history and contemporary life exist side by side. From the cobbled streets of the Old City and landmarks such as the Maiden Tower, visitors move beyond the capital to Balakhani, a village reborn through restoration, public art and creative spaces rooted in its oil heritage.
