1. Not far from Gabala, in the village of Nij there is a unique architectural monument – the Udi temple. Udins are considered descendants of ancient Albanians and are a very special ethnic group (there are only 10,000 of them left). They have managed to preserve their language and cultural traditions to this day. Most recently, the temple was restored and is now open to tourists.

4. Also, you should definitely visit the waterfall “Seven Beauties”, it is located in the vicinity of Gabala, near the village of Vandam. The waterfall consists of seven cascades, hence its name. If you want to admire this natural miracle, then you should go there very early. So, the name of the Seven Beauties Waterfall originates from the name of the 7 mountain roads that should pass to reach the waterfall

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).
