What To Expect
Maiden Tower
We start your Baku Old City tour nearby one of the most iconic landmarks in Baku—the beautiful Maiden Tower. This ancient tower is considered to be the symbol of Baku and the Azerbaijani nation itself. It is also a part of the UNESCO list of world cultural heritage. The mysterious Maiden Tower is also a source of numerous legends that revolve both around the creation of it and its story, all of which will be told to you on your tour by the professional guide.
The next time we stop on your walking tour is the Hadji Baani hammam. It’s the oldest and largest bathhouse in the Icherisheher. It was discovered only in 1960, when the bathhouse was finally found beneath the ground. To this day this beautiful construction is one of the most stunning buildings on the territory of Baku’s Old City.
