Flame-shaped towers lit up along a Caspian waterfront, a walled old town that predates the skyline by about a thousand years, and mud volcanoes an hour out for anyone who wants to see the ground bubble.

The best time to visit Baku is Apr–Jun, Sep–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 21°C (69°F).
