Today we leave for the mountain regions of Azerbaijan where you can witness the most picturesque and spectacular corners of Azerbaijan. The first stop is in Shamakha town with a rich heritage. It provided the backdrop to major political events throughout much of its two millennia of existence. Being a capital of the Shirvanshahs state from the 9th century, it was one of the main towns along “The Great Silk Way”. During the excursion you visit architectural monuments such as Juma mosque, mausoleum Diri-Baba. Shamakha delivers us to the greater Caucasus marvel Gabala through Ismayilli. If you would like to witness one of the most picturesque and spectacular corner of Azerbaijan, you certainly have to visit Gabala. Soul-stirring mountains, mist-shrouded forests, chestnut and walnut groves, rugged mountain rivers, tooth-and-claw wildlife – this is Gabala’s grand outdoor wonderland. Our first stop is Nokhur lake – popular recreation spot that is surrounded by mountains and thickets of reeds. Quite nature, clean water surface, incredible scenery – all this brings a sense of tranquility. The road leads to Gabaland – theme park with kids’ attractions (karting, sky dive, horse & pony riding, climbing wall, boats etc), special event and endless family fun. Next point of visit is Gabala Shooting Club – a favorite place for active leisure fans. Here you can train your shooting skills. New mosque in the city center – one more epic sight of Gabala. The walls and pillars of the mosque are painted with suras from the Holy Koran and decorated with religious symbols using unique samples of the Azerbaijani calligraphic school and oriental ornaments. The final destination of our today’s excursion is Tufandag Mountain Resort – unsurpassed tourism recreation centre where you can enjoy breathing the fresh air and wondering at the dazzling views of the mountains. Tufandag offers cable car (teleferique) rides at any time of the year, cafe and restaurants, entertainment centers for kids and other services.
