Description

Discover Azerbaijan’s historic walk through Ganja’s old quarters, taste local flavors, and enjoy the breathtaking alpine beauty of Goygol National Park on this cultural escape from Baku.
Begin your journey with a scenic drive from Baku to Ganja, Azerbaijan’s cultural capital and one of the oldest cities in the Caucasus. Upon arrival, stroll through the historic center, where red-brick buildings, cozy pedestrian streets, and artisan workshops reveal Ganja’s timeless charm. Visit the city’s most iconic landmarks, including the Bottle House — a unique architectural masterpiece created from over 50,000 glass bottles — and the beautifully preserved Shah Abbas Mosque.

Continue to the Imamzadeh Complex, one of Azerbaijan’s most important spiritual monuments, famous for its striking blue-tiled domes and peaceful courtyard. After exploring Ganja, head toward the mountains of the Lesser Caucasus and enter Goygol National Park, home to the stunning alpine lake formed by an 1139 earthquake.

Take your time enjoying the fresh mountain air, forest trails, and the mesmerizing blue water of Lake Goygol. An optional stop for a traditional Ganja-style lunch completes your experience before returning comfortably to Baku.
