Baku city in Azerbaijan. [Agutu Rosa, Standard]

When you hear of Azerbaijan, what comes to mind? If you thought of a country far between Europe and Asia, rich with culture, history, and beautiful city lights, then you are right.

The journey began with a six-hour flight to Türkiye, followed by another two hours and thirty minutes to Baku. The skies of Baku opened and rain fell, even though the grey weather the city welcomed its visitors with warmth and care.

The streets of Baku feel like time-travelling, some areas have maintained the archaic architecture that makes you feel as though you have been teleported to a royal film while others have embraced modernity with skyscrapers beautifying the city.
