The trip will be opened with visiting historical Gobustan. Exploring natural and architectural sights in Gobustan Rock Art, you will gain invaluable information about Azerbaijan’s history.
The Cultural Landscape covers three an area of 537 ha and three areas of a plateau of rocky boulders rising out of the semi-desert of central Azerbaijan, with an outstanding collection of more than 6,000 rock engravings bearing testimony to 40,000 years of rock art.
Gobustan is a semi-desert region which includes five hills well known for rock art sites: Kichik Dash, Boyuk Dash, Jinghirdag-Yazily tepe, Shongardag, Shikhgaya.
Gobustan rock art seems to have clutched connections with the Western European Upper Palaeolithic open air rock art.

Mud Volcanoes
Azerbaijan is a unique and classic area where mud volcanism is developing on our planet. Over 350 types of mud volcanoes (active, extinct, buried, oil-producing, underwater, island volcanoes) are found in the dry part of eastern Azerbaijan and in the Caspian Sea adjacent to it. Due to the number, variety and activity of these nature monuments, there is no place in the world like Azerbaijan. Our country is considered a homeland of mud volcanoes.

Yanar Dag
We will continue our trip by visiting most famous fire Fire Mountain (Yanardag), which has a ten meters long wall of fire, that never extinguishes and is burning continuously alongside the edge of the hill.
The volcano, which has been nominated for UNESCO World Heritage, has been burning for hundreds of years. With the natural gas coming to the surface, the skirt of the burning mountain is flooded with visitors day and night.
Before the 7th century, the Volcano was used as the temple of the Mecus, and the buildings around it were destroyed and the fire continued to burn.

Ateshgah - Fire Temple
Ateshgah in the Suraxani district of Baku is one of the three Mecusi temples in the world.
According to Zoroastrianism, this place is as sacred as Mecca. There are 3 shrines in Iran, India and Azerbaijan.
Every tourist who enters the cellars can feel the wonders of this place. For example, as you enter 12 cells, you will see a very strange sight as you look at the flames burning in the dome of the four-storey building in the yard of Ateshgah. At this point, it seems to you that you are standing on a step of the flame. Or when you get to the 18th cell and stop there for a while, you hear strange sounds. It seems to someone that they are talking. Mixed voices are clearly heard, but they do not understand what they are saying.
