#familytravel We visited the city of Baku as part of our family getaway. It was clubbed with one more country cos I wasn't sure if Azerbaijan would have enough. This was a holiday in mid August. Azerbaijan had been trending online and had favourable reviews, but an absolute foreign for me as we had never visited thus part of the world. We flew in from Dubai. The arrival experience was comfortable. The city was prettier than what I expected. I was worried that it would be just mosques and religious theme. But surprisingly that wasn't the case. It's a beautifully planned place with wide and clean roadways, lush green gardens along with elevated buildings that had eye catching architecture. I noticed a lot of people preferred travelling on foot. Baku is rightly referred to as the city of winds. I can't remember any other place that I have been to and was so windy all the time. Day 1 mostly involved taking it easy and exploring the hotel offerings, the spa and the complimentary Hammam. Once relaxed and we'll rested. In the evening we set out to see the The Flame tower which is a combination of three standalone buildings each comprising of a luxury hotel, a residential building and an office. The height of the tallest towers amongst the three is 182 meters. The Flame Towers are completely covered with the LED screens that display the movement of a fire visible from the farthest points of the city. The light show transitions from giant flames and the colours of the Azeri flag. Day 2 we headed to explore the fascinating old town. It had small alleys and open cafes. The old town of Baku was also laden with tree art, graffiti and local handmade handicrafts, carpets and shawls prepared by the local Azeri artists. The locals there are not only adept in making the carpets and handicrafts but also creating human sculptures which you would see in various parts of the city. Day 3 visit Yanar Dag which also means Burning mountain in Azerbaijani language. It is a natural gas fire which blazes continuously on a hillside on the Absheron Peninsula on the Caspian Sea near Baku. This was followed with Baku astagah in surakhani. The day ended with a nice azerbaijani meal as on most days. #familytravel #100waysoftravel #baku #azerbaijan #flowerlover

| Yanardag has been burning for a thousand years in Azerbaijan. 🔥 Natural gas seeps from the ground, and it has been burning for a millennium. 🎫 Ticket price: 9 Manat 🚕🚘🚌 How to get there 📍 Directly locate Yanardag 🚕 You can take a taxi from the city center, which costs about 8 Manat. Use Yango or other ride-hailing apps for a fixed online payment, so you don't have to worry about the driver overcharging. 🔙 If you are worried about calling a taxi back to the city center, ask the driver to wait for you there for a while; you can leave after spending at most half an hour at this place. 🚌 There are day tours that basically all go here, but they also include the Fire Temple and Mud Volcanoes, and it takes a whole day to visit them all. If you are not interested in other attractions, it's better not to join a tour. 📸🖼️🔥 Three photo spots 1️⃣ The Flame It's actually a very small fire; you can crouch down to take a picture or shoot from a higher angle to make the flames appear more plentiful. 2️⃣ Yanardag Sign Above the flames, it looks good to take a picture of the whole sign or just a few letters separately. 3️⃣ Mountain Top Platform It's called the mountain top, but it's actually just a few steps up. The area at the top is quite open, and you can run to take some dynamic photos. ⚠️ It's really a small scenic area; you can see the whole place at a glance as soon as you enter. But it's still worth a visit. ⚠️ If you want to take more photos, it's best not to join a tour. I stayed there for less than half an hour and saw two groups of tourists coming and going. The tour guides didn't leave much time for photos after telling the story. ⚠️ Be careful, it's dangerous. Do not cross the red line on the ground when visiting and taking photos.
