描述

Explore Icherisheher, Baku’s ancient Old City. Walk through narrow streets, discover historic landmarks, and uncover centuries of stories, architecture, and local culture in this guided walking tour.
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the rich history and captivating charm of Baku’s Old City, locally known as Icherisheher — a UNESCO World Heritage site that has stood at the heart of Azerbaijan’s capital for over eight centuries.

Your guided walking tour begins at the iconic Maiden Tower, one of Baku’s most recognizable symbols, steeped in legend and mystery. From here, explore the atmospheric maze of narrow stone streets lined with architectural treasures and historic landmarks that bear witness to the city’s fascinating past.

Wander past the ruins of St. Bartholomew’s Chapel, a site connected to early Christian history, and admire the Haji Baani Hammam — the largest and oldest bathhouse discovered beneath the Old City. Visit both the Multani and Bukhara Caravanserais, once vital rest stops for traders crossing the Great Silk Road from India and Central Asia.

As you continue, discover the Sailor’s House and the Chained House, reflecting life and commerce in past centuries, and explore the historic Residence of Baku Khans, offering insight into the region’s ruling families. Learn about the ancient Double Gates and remnants of the Old City fortress walls that protected the city for generations.

Marvel at the architectural masterpiece that is the Palace of the Shirvanshahs, widely regarded as the gem of Icherisheher, and hear stories of Azerbaijani culture at the bust of the poet Aliaga Vahid. Your guide will also take you to playful spots tied to famous Soviet films, like the legendary “Damn it!” scene from The Diamond Hand.

The tour concludes with a visit to the historic Juma Mosque, a 15th-century mosque that has been rebuilt and preserved through the centuries, standing just steps from the Maiden Tower.

Throughout the walk, your professional English-speaking guide will bring the stories, legends, and cultural significance of Icherisheher to life, making this more than just a tour — but a journey through time in the heart of Baku’s oldest quarter.
