// 💨🇦🇿 The ‘City of Winds’ or ‘4 Hours Flight From India’, we’ve heard it both ways, and we just had to visit Baku to see what the hype is about - and boy was it worth it! Beautiful architecture, smiling people and stunning sights to see, here’s a little Baku Journal for you!

Start your day with coffee AND the most gorgeous views of the city. If you’re visiting Baku during the Grand Prix, with , you are at the center of the action and can watch the race right from the balcony of your own room 🏎️☕️🏙️

Onto taking a dip in the Gobustan mud volcanoes, filled with vitamins and natural antibiotics - just what’s needed for a little vacation R&R 🧖🏻‍♀️✨

Bike through the cobbled Baku promenade. Forget about cabs, this is the best way to get around the city! 🚲🚏

To truly experience the city’s beautiful history, visit the Icheri Sheher or the Old City, sitting amongst architecture going back as long as the 12th Century, the Ateshgah (Fire Temple) of Baku and the architecturally brilliant Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center 🏰🔥

As the sun starts to set, imagine yourself on a yacht on the Caspian Sea, sipping bubbly. Endless views of the sea on one side, and the stunning lights of the city of Baku starting to sparkle on the other side 🛥️🌆

Explore Nizami Street by night, host to stunning local boutiques for unique finds and restaurants for culinary delights, the perfect end to your day 🍲🛍️

Pro Tips -
Do NOT miss the traditional Hammam experience while in Baku! 🧖🏻
Keep a check on the weather before you travel - days can be super sunny, and nights very cold! ☀️🥶
Install ‘Bolt’ on your phones for quick and cheap cabs to move around quickly 🚕
