Itinerary
Qobustan

I will talk about archaeological finds, about the flora and fauna of these places, about ancient cities, the first written language and much more.Gobustan Rock Art
30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedOn the road dotted with boulders of bizarre shape, we will go to the rocks. You will examine the numerous petroglyphs and feel like real archaeologists - what if you will be able to decipher the message of ancient artists? You will hear music by the mysterious stone Gavaldash, visit the caves where people settled in the Stone Age, and you will find traces of bonfires that were kindled 30 thousand years ago. Unlike the French cave of Lascaux, where tourists are not allowed to enter, here you can touch the ancient petroglyphs.Mud Volcanoes

Driving off-road, you will find yourself among alien landscapes: cracked earth and seething hills, on the slopes of which, creating a unique relief, a thick mass of mud stream — breccia — spreads. If you want, you can feel the healing properties of mud.Bibi-Heybat Mosque
