Rute

1. Ateshgah in the Suraxani district of Baku is one of the three Mecusi temples in the world. According to Zoroastrianism, this place is as sacred as Mecca. There are 3 shrines in Iran, India and Azerbaijan. Every tourist who enters the cellars can feel the wonders of this place. For example, as you enter 12 cells, you will see a very strange sight as you look at the flames burning in the dome of the four-storey building in the yard of Ateshgah. At this point, it seems to you that you are standing on a step of the flame. Or when you get to the 18th cell and stop there for a while, you hear strange sounds. It seems to someone that they are talking. Mixed voices are clearly heard, but they do not understand what they are saying.

2. We will continue our trip by visiting most famous fire Fire Mountain (Yanardag), which has a ten meters long wall of fire, that never extinguishes and is burning continuously alongside the edge of the hill. The volcano, which has been nominated for UNESCO World Heritage, has been burning for hundreds of years. With the natural gas coming to the surface, the skirt of the burning mountain is flooded with visitors day and night. Before the 7th century, the Volcano was used as the temple of the Mecus, and the buildings around it were destroyed and the fire continued to burn.

About Baku

Baku is Azerbaijan's capital on the Caspian Sea, where a walled medieval old town sits beside oil-era mansions and glass towers shaped like flames.

The walled Old City, Icherisheher, is a UNESCO-listed maze of lanes with the Maiden Tower and the Palace of the Shirvanshahs, both medieval. Beyond the walls, grand mansions from the oil boom of the late nineteenth century line the streets, and a long boulevard runs beside the Caspian. The three Flame Towers glow on the skyline, and Zaha Hadid's curving Heydar Aliyev Centre is a landmark of modern architecture.

Top-ranked sights in Baku: Bibi-Heybat Mosque (Bibiheybet Mescidi), Yanar Dag, Baku Old City (Icherisheher).
