City Boulevard

One of Baku’s great glories is its setting, gently curled round a brilliant blue bay of the Caspian. Paralleling the sweep of seaside for several kilometres, Baku Boulevard is a tree-shaded promenade park that’s ideal for sea views at any point but also has boat rides, tea houses, restaurants, a carpet museum, fountains, rare trees and even a ‘little Venice’ lagoon complete with gondolas. There’s nowhere better deal for a late-night summer stroll to breathe in cool, fresh sea air.
