Inner city

The Inner City of Baku, also known as Icherisheher, is the oldest part of Baku and has roots dating back to at least the 12th century. As you enter the ancient city, you'll pass through the well-preserved medieval walls and imposing gates. The entrance alone is a journey into the past.

Inside, the narrow cobblestone streets wind through a maze of historic buildings, each with its own story to tell. Here, you'll find architectural gems like the Maiden Tower, a mysterious structure that has captivated historians and storytellers for centuries.

The Inner City's layout is a blend of winding alleys, charming squares, and hidden courtyards. It's a place where you can explore museums, art galleries, and small shops offering handmade crafts and traditional Azerbaijani souvenirs.

The Palace of the Shirvanshahs, a royal residence that dates back to the 15th century, is a highlight of Icherisheher. It's a place where you can stroll through lush courtyards and admire intricate stonework and ancient inscriptions.

But Icherisheher is not just a relic of the past; it's a thriving community where people live and work. The blend of ancient and modern life creates a unique atmosphere that adds to the charm of the Inner City.
