As you walk through the ancient streets, your guide will point out hidden gems like the **Juma Mosque**, one of the oldest in Azerbaijan, and the **Baku City Walls**, which once protected the city from invaders. You’ll also see the **Caravanserais**, where traders once rested as they traveled along the Silk Road, offering a glimpse into Baku’s role as a vibrant trading hub.
Along the way, you’ll visit **local artisans' shops**, where you can experience traditional crafts, from carpet weaving to copper engraving. Be sure to stop for a cup of **Azerbaijani tea**, served in the traditional glass, as you take in the atmosphere of this historic district.
