Guide
Ateshgah Temple: The Ateshgah Temple or the Fire Temple is a castle-like temple located in the Surakhani suburb of Baku. The pentagonal complex, which has a courtyard surrounded by cells for monks and a tetra pillar-altar in the middle was built during the 17th and 18th centuries. It was abandoned after 1883.
Yanardag: it is rather a hill than a mountain, with natural gas burning on its slope from ancient times. Meter-long tongues of fire are licking the stratified earth approximately for 10 m in width, searing those who approached too close. People occupy the benches to watch the blazing hill in the evening, when the its sight is most effective.
