A beautiful place that can be seen from almost anywhere in Baku. It beckons me to go to its foot, which I did one spring morning. It was not possible to approach the foot directly, the territory is guarded. Be careful, you can't take pictures either. In general, the tower is like a tower, nothing special. But next to it there are two operating oil pumps and the mountain offers a magnificent view of the city. That's why it's worth going up to the tower.

This is indeed a landmark of the beautiful city of Baku, which can be viewed from a height of 175 meters. This is such a little adventure with a gastronomic bias, which begins from the very entrance, when you are met, escorted along the "golden" corridor to the elevator, escorted in the elevator to the 27th floor and there you get into the spacious hall of the restaurant, located in a circle on the platform. The restaurant platform rotates slowly and makes a full turn in an hour and a half. The menu is not God knows what, it is not the most "delicious" restaurant, but you can eat quite well for 30 manat deposit, which must be paid at the entrance. There are such conditions for visiting the restaurant. And it's even better to book a table in advance, because there are a lot of people who want to.
