The historical center of Baku reveals its tumultuous past, from its roots as a Persian capital, through its oil boom to its Soviet occupation. The old city is a maze of alleys, mosques, historic buildings and remnants of fortification, including the Palace of the Shirvanshahs and the Maiden Tower, now listed among UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. Much more than a historic site, the city hosts vibrant arts and cultural activities, as well as a bustling modern business sector.

The City Walls of Baku are in great condition considering that for most parts , they are alongside boutiques and restaurants without any special protection . We used the audio-guides available at the Tourist information office to get a good description of their origin and purposes .

Historians are not sure about the age and function of this tower-like structure. Was it part of city fortification? The tower is 28 m high and from the top is a nice view of the old city, new skyscrapers and the seashore boulevard. Inside is a museum with modern displays explaining the history of Baku. The entry is 15 AZN.

Perfect place for an evening walk some nice cafes around for refreshments. If you're travelling in winter, some warm gears are recommended to counter windy sea breeze.

Upland Park, is located close to the Flame towers. It gives a great vantage point to view much of the 'City of Lights' (Baku). Whilst great during the day, it really transforms the view at night when th city is illuminated.
