Itinerary
-
Ateshgah & Yanar Dagh
- Meet your tour guide at the agreed-upon location in Baku.
- Start your journey by going to the Ateshgah fire temple (literally Fire House), which is located 30kms from the centre of the city, in the south-eastern outskirts of the Absheron Peninsula. It has been revered in different times by Zoroastrians, Hindus and Sikhs; the current constructions of the temple date back to the 17th century. As a result of excavations, far more ancient artefacts were discovered here, which you will get to witness.
- Proceed to Yanar Dagh. The word "Yanar" in the Azeri language means "burning", and "Dagh" - "mountain". At present, it is the only place of a unique natural phenomenon - the output of natural gas to the surface that lends it its name.
