What To Expect
World's First Oil Well
On our way we will also stop at the first oil well that was drilled in Azerbaijan and in the world in general. Drilled in 1846, it first gave oil on July 14, 1848. This oil well played immense role in pushing the oil production forward to the world we have nowadays. Also we will pass the pumpjacks built back in soviet days, that are working to these days.
Mud Volcanoes
This land has been an active mud volcano zone for hundreds of years now. Sprayed all over the territory, it creates a surreal landscape that distinctly reminds the moon’s surface. Back in days people used to believe that this place is a homeland for jinns (demons in Azerbaijani culture). Leading to mud volcanos, a small trail that brings a certain angle of romantism into the mix, creating a majestic scenery. Leaving this beautiful place appears to be hard, but we can assure you, that there’s so much more to see along the way.
