An iconic place of the Old City in Baku. Every tourist visits it and listens to the legend of the girl. But there are many equally interesting places nearby. It is best to come to the Old Town in the morning - for those who love peace and quiet, or in the evening for lovers of music and vibrant life. Not far from Primorsky Boulevard and the Flame Towers.

The Maiden Tower is located on the outskirts of the Old Town, near the embankment. It is easy to see from the embankment and find it due to its convenient location. The name of the tower is associated with an ancient legend about a girl who threw herself off it. The guide told us that in our time, local girls inspired by this legend also committed suicide by throwing themselves from the tower because of unhappy love. In this regard, the authorities decided to install fences on the observation deck of the tower to prevent such cases.
In order to climb to the top of the tower, you need to walk up an atmospheric staircase with worn stone steps. The view of the city and the sea from above is simply amazing! :)
Sincerely, Apartments Crown39

It is necessary to watch with a guide, preferably a small group. Baku, including the Old City, is beautiful, atmospheric and at the same time comfortable (except for the narrow sidewalks in the old part, which is understandable, and the passion for steps. Shoes with upturned noses would be very useful for us there.
