The Ritz-Carlton in Baku, Azerbaijan is so beautiful! It faces the Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center designed by Zaha Hadid

Azerbaijan is a country known for its oil - although not as extravagant as the Middle Eastern oil nations, the capital Baku on the Caspian coast is just as prosperous as Dubai. Here you can see the world's largest mysterious inland sea - the Caspian Sea. The romantic and bustling oil city stretches along the vast coast, with the brilliance of the Flame Towers reflecting on the sea surface~ Moreover, direct flights from Beijing to Baku have been launched, and visa on arrival is very convenient! I stayed in four hotels in Baku, the newest of which is The Ritz-Carlton Baku. This Ritz-Carlton opened in 2022, and compared to many older Ritz-Carlton properties, this one has very new facilities. At the same time, the Ritz brand has also completely switched to top-tier Diptyque bath products~ The first night I stayed in a regular suite, and for the next two nights, I booked the presidential suite, the 608 square meters of space was truly luxurious! Not only does it come with a gym, a huge walk-in closet and bathroom~ but also a sauna room and a steam room~ Taking a bubble bath, steaming in the sauna, so comfortable! The Ritz-Carlton Baku~ The balconies of the two suites I stayed in both directly face the Heydar Aliyev Center designed by Zaha Hadid's architectural firm, with first-class views! It only takes about ten minutes to walk there from the hotel, which is so convenient! The hotel's Blind Tiger bar and Tribeca restaurant have a fantastic atmosphere~ Staying at the Ritz-Carlton, you must enjoy a romantic dinner at the bar and restaurant! Of course, don't miss the hotel's SPA, the essential oil massage is so comfortable~ After relaxing, you can also go to the nearby Old City of Baku to stroll around and enjoy the charming night of the 'Little Paris of the Caucasus'.
