Frequently asked questions
About Azerbaijan
Azerbaijan, located at the crossroads of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, is a country known for its rich history, diverse culture, and stunning landscapes. The official currency is the Azerbaijani manat. With its mix of modern cities and ancient sites, visitors can explore attractions such as the UNESCO-listed Old City of Baku, the mud volcanoes of Gobustan, and the picturesque landscapes of the Caucasus Mountains.
When to visit
The best time to visit Azerbaijan is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to November) when the weather is mild and pleasant. Summers can be hot, especially in the lowland areas, while winters can be cold with snowfall in the mountainous regions.
Getting around
Getting around Azerbaijan is relatively easy with various transportation options available. Baku, the capital city, has a well-developed metro system, buses, and taxis. For exploring other parts of the country, there are domestic flights, trains, and buses. Renting a car is also an option for those who prefer more flexibility.
Traveller tips
Make sure to try Azerbaijani cuisine, known for its delicious kebabs, pilaf, and baklava. Respect the local customs and traditions, especially when visiting religious sites. Dress modestly, particularly in rural areas and religious sites. Carry cash as credit cards may not be widely accepted outside of major cities. Learn a few basic phrases in Azerbaijani to communicate with the locals. Be cautious of your belongings and avoid crowded areas to prevent pickpocketing.
