Highlights
Guns, snakes, samovar, tea glasses, fruits, cows, deer – what do these have in common? And Sergei Parajanov? Sofi Hamid Shrine and Cemetery is a place riddling visitors with its unusual symbols and rich saturated colors. If you ask locals, very few will know about its existence. Sofi Hamid tells about the history of Azerbaijan, its culture and shared beliefs of locals much more than any other historical monument of the country. No wonder that Parajanov chose this spot for Ashik Kerib, Parajanov's last film, for colorful pictures of camels, fruits and flowers and other scenes. Get ready for unique impressions and haunting memories! Top reasons to visit: - unique spot to discover colorful artwork of locals based on their beliefs - explore how regimes and lives of people have changed throughout the centuries and decades - meditative trip around wind-swept plains away from hustle & bustle of the city - a must-see for people interested in mysticism, Sufism and art in Soviet era

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).
