The next time we stop on your walking tour is the Hadji Baani hammam. It’s the oldest and largest bathhouse in the Icherisheher. It was discovered only in 1960, when the bathhouse was finally found beneath the ground. To this day this beautiful construction is one of the most stunning buildings on the territory of Baku’s Old City.

Caravanserais were a really important parts of lives of travellers back in the days. There were the safe havens for anyone, allowing merchants and their animals rest, sleep and get back their strength after a long tiresome road. On your historical Baku tour we will specifically visit two of the caravansarais that are located in the Old City. One, Multani, was created back in 14th century, built for thousands of Indian merchants, who regularly passed through Azerbaijan. Most of those travellers were fire-worshippers from the far-away city of Multani, so with time this beautiful place claimed that name for itself. The second one - Bukhara – is a beautiful architectural piece dated back to 15th century on one of the main routes crossing Azerbaijan. Most travellers from Asia, specifically Central Asia stayed in the Bukhara Caravansarai while travelling from Bukhara (hence the name). Both of those two caravansarais are considered to be a part of the Great Silk Way.

Residence of Baku Khans is a magnetic and breathtaking place, the creation of which dates back to early 18th century. The generations of rulers of the Baku Khanate existed and ruled within those walls, the wealth of it visible to the naked eye.

Truly, the pearl of Baku City - The Palace of Shirvanshahs, is one of the most mesmerising spots you might come across in the Old City.
