Rank : 6.5 (average on 2 votes)

Coordinates : 40.388755, 49.860444 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : Some properties can not be photographed for security reasons, people often do not like to be photographed, even though they are always very kind to us foreigners, even slightly away from urban areas open beautiful natural landscapes, a wide variety of climatic zones, urban architecture for me is a mix between Istanbul and Dubai, great modern, with many unique structures in the world; The Old Town has been recognized by UNESCO World Heritage, Gobustan with age petroglyphs of stone and Roman inscriptions and much more to see

Recommended equipment : Wide angle for urban landscapes, telephoto, zoom or fixed no matter, the first time I turned with only one lens at a time

Best months : Avoid the summer, very hot and humid, the wind does not always help, but ... autumn and spring the right time, pleasant temperature, always lots of wind

How to get there : Azal airlines from Milan, direct flight only 2 times a week; Turkish airlines, with direct flights to Istanbul; Ukraine airlines, with direct flights to Kiev

Visits : Visits to museums and archaeological sites for a fee, cost accessible to all, parks and beautiful gardens and manicured, Bulvar (seafront) is a show, even at night; the feeling of "security" (virtually no crime, law enforcement and military, surveillance of the city with thousands of cameras and radar ANYWHERE) that I felt from the first time is not comparable to any European city, the city is changing year after year , the transformation is evident and fast, before long the "Soviet" period (still visible in many buildings and areas of the city) is just a memory

Notes : Required entry visa, issued by the consular service Azerbaijan Embassy Rome, here is the link with all the details: http://rome.mfa.gov.az/per those interested in 2016 we also have the F1 here in Baku, the path turns around the Old City (Icheri Sheher) and the straight runs on Bulvar, very nice!
