Among the picturesque ruins of the historical quarters of Baku, known as Icheri Sheher or the Inner City, there is a cozy restaurant. Here, to the tunes of folk music, guests can enjoy a delicious dinner with dishes of national cuisine. After being treated to a cup of tea along with Baku baklava, they leave the table and go for a car ride.
The guiding line leads to Baku Mountain – first stop of the "Evening Baku" tour. At the very top of the city's business center is the main Baku park. Walking along its alleys, guests will learn about historical events associated with the park and enjoy a panoramic view of the night lights of Baku from the best observation deck in the city. The park, founded at the beginning of the 20th century, provides interesting stories and fresh air thanks to the abundance of park flora.
Guests then board a tour bus for an overnight ride through the streets. Second stop – Seaside Park, also known as Baku Boulevard, stretches along Baku Bay for 16 kilometers. The tour covers a section of the boulevard known as Little Venice.
This park complex, stylized as the legendary European Venice, reproduces the city's water canals, bridges and gondolas. A tour of this part of the boulevard provides a peaceful stroll along the banks of the canals, tells the history of Baku and introduces the outstanding architecture of the adjacent Neftchinikov Avenue.
Walking along the boulevard, you will see an architectural miracle of the Stalin era – House of the Government of Soviet Azerbaijan. This gigantic structure, built over almost 16 years, has become one of the architectural symbols of the Soviet period in Azerbaijan.
The last stop of the tour is a visit to the surroundings of the cultural and educational center named after Heydar Aliyev. Voted the best architectural design on the planet in 2014, this building and its surrounding park are outstanding examples of contemporary global architecture.
The story about the center, the personality of Heydar Aliyev, its designer Zaha Hadid, and the surrounding attractions becomes the final chord of a night trip around Baku. At the end of the tour, guests return home, immersed in memories of the impressive “Evening Baku”.
