Azerbaijan has so much to offer that you could easily spend days exploring all its attractions. Even if you only have a short break between meetings in Baku, there are plenty of fascinating places to take beautiful photos. You can wander through old town streets, enjoy charming cafes and tea houses, dine in elegant restaurants, or listen to live jazz in cool clubs. You'll also find shops selling traditional carpets and unique souvenirs, along with museums and art galleries showcasing both history and modern art.

If you have a bit more time, you can join a city bus tour where you can get on and off at different stops. Or you could take day trips to visit mud volcanoes, ancient rock carvings, historic castles, archaeological sites, and even a temple with a fire that's been burning for centuries. You could see a couple of these sights in just an afternoon, or spend the whole day exploring them all.

If you're feeling more adventurous, you can visit rural Azerbaijan, where you'll find stunning landscapes like deserts, mountains, canyons, beaches, forests, and even ski resorts—all within a four-hour drive. There's so much to see and do, whether you're a history buff, a nature lover, or just looking for some relaxation in beautiful surroundings.
