Various versions are considered in the imaginative little multimedia installations that adorn several floors of the tower's interior.

Nizami Street - The street's history could be traced back to Baku's town planning project of 1864. The street runs through the city's downtown from west to east. It begins from Abdulla Shaig Street, in the mountainous part of the city and ends at railroad bed on Sabit Orujov Street, near a monument to Shah Ismail Khatai in “Black City”. The total length of the street is 3,538 m.
