Our first stop was the iconic Nizami Street, a vibrant pedestrian avenue lined with boutiques, restaurants, and buzzing cafes. The architecture is a charming blend of classic and modern, and the crowd?

Let me tell you, I felt like I had walked into a live fashion magazine. The men and women here are stunning — everyone looks like a runway model. And what stood out even more? Their undying passion for business. From fashion to food, they hustle hard and smile even harder.

Yanardagh — the famous "Burning Mountain" just outside Baku, where flames rise right out of the ground and never go out. Sounds dramatic? It actually is! Nature literally showing off.
The sight of fire dancing on the rocks was wild — like something straight out of a movie. We stood there amazed, soaking in the heat (and wondering if we’d accidentally walked into a barbecue).
And of course, what better way to enjoy natural fire… than with ice cream in hand? Yes, we found a little ice cream spot nearby and made it our chill zone.

Atashgah – The Fire Temple — one of the most unique and historic spots near Baku. The moment we stepped in, it felt like time had hit rewind. Ancient walls, sacred flames, and centuries of stories all in one place.

The eternal fire in the center was fascinating — a symbol of peace and spirituality, but also a great photo op (let’s be honest). Walking through the temple corridors, you could almost hear whispers of history. Or maybe that was just the wind.

We read about Zoroastrians, Hindu connections, and travelers from centuries ago — basically, a crash course in culture with a side of fire.
Also switched on my blogger mode — shot videos, shared reactions (some dramatic), and had a blast.

Check out the videos at the end of the page — I promise they’re more fire than the fire itself 🔥
