Explore the architecture of Azerbaijan
On the shores of the Caspian Sea, the old Soviet Union meets Dubai in Baku, Azerbaijan. This lowest-lying capital in the world, 100 feet below the ocean, is a deeply interesting place that combines a fascinating Old Town with dramatic new architecture. Baku is home to the oldest Shiite mosque, the Bibi Heybet, which stood in its cliff-top location from the 13th to the 20th century, when it was demolished to make way for a new highway winding south of the city. But in 1998, they built a new, identical mosque, which you can freely wander around today. Afterwards, enjoy the magnificent view of the Caspian coast directly from the mirador.
Thanks to Azerbaijan's oil wealth, there are plenty of new luxury hotels. But the ideal location is between the walls of the Old Town - in addition to the characteristic accommodation, here you will also find peace from the constantly humming bustle outside.
