Overview

By booking the tour, you will travel a long and interesting way from the Absheron Peninsula to the cultural capital of Azerbaijan, the city of Sheki, which holds a unique place in the line of UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage, through the Ancient Great Silk Road along the Caucasus Mountains, and you will feel how the landscape, nature and culture have changed. When you visit the Kish Albanian temple, you will visit the oldest Christian religious temple not only in the Caucasus, but also in the whole world. Entering the upper caravanserai, you can imagine the bargains of Sheki and foreign merchants, and entering the palace of Sheki Khan, you will see how the miniature Murano glass was decorated by the trade caravan from Europe to the Far East.
