- Mud Volcanoes - Azerbaijan and its Caspian coastline host nearly 400 mud volcanoes, accounting for more than half of the world’s total. In 2001, a mud volcano 15 kilometers from Baku gained international attention when it unexpectedly erupted with flames reaching 15 meters high. These mud volcanoes are closely linked to underground hydrocarbon and petrochemical reserves, which cause gas to escape to the surface.
- Ateshgah - Fire Temple - The fire-worshipping Zoroastrians left their legacy at Ateshgah, where the Fire Temple captivates visitors with its fiery displays. The current temple dates back to the 17th-19th centuries, having been adopted by Hindu merchants trading in nearby Baku.
- Yanardag State Historical, Cultural and Natural Reserve - Yanardag (Fire Mountain) is just a 20-minute drive from Ateshgah, where a peculiar orange glow can be seen emanating from the hillside near the low pass. This is due to the hill itself being on fire. Gas escaping from underground vents has been burning continuously for decades, drawing curious visitors from around the globe.
- Bibi-Heybat Mosque - The Bibi-Heybat Mosque is a historic mosque in Baku, Azerbaijan. The current structure, built in the 1990s, is a reconstruction of the original mosque built in the 13th century by Shirvanshah Farrukhzad II Ibn Ahsitan II, which was destroyed by the Bolsheviks in 1936. The mosque includes the tomb of Ukeyma Khanum, a descendant of Muhammad, and serves as a spiritual center for Muslims in the region. It is a significant monument of Islamic architecture in Azerbaijan and is locally known as “the mosque of Fatima,” a name given by Alexandre Dumas during his visit in the 1840s.
