Travelers can indulge in authentic dishes at quaint local cafes or explore artisan shops offering everything from carpets to intricate jewelry. As the sun sets, Old City Baku transforms into a magical scene, with soft lights illuminating its medieval walls, offering an atmosphere of both serenity and intrigue.
