If you don't have the strength to climb the stairs, the funicular is just right. The car is new, it goes quietly. There's a queue, but it's moving fast. It costs one manat. Good.

The cost of a funicular ride is 1 manat, and the journey time takes about three minutes. Despite the queue, we managed to get on the next flight. I recommend not sitting in the carriage, but standing on the platform at the very bottom of it to enjoy the best view. Interestingly, the slope of the descent is variable (although more often it is made permanent for a funicular). Because of this, the shape of the carriage does not fully compensate for the slope on the entire section of the track. A pleasant park and observation decks await you upstairs, offering stunning views of the Flame Towers and Baku.

One of the attractions of the city is the funicular. A quick lift from the Carpet Museum to the Upland Park . A modern carriage with a good view of the city . A queue of people often gathers at the bottom of the rise, but it moves quickly. For those who want to go down or climb on foot, there is an alternative - going down the stairs.

get ready for the queue - although the view from the upper park is simply wonderful, there is a lot of space, a large walking area, the towers look beautiful nearby, and you also need to have a change at all times - although you can pay for the funicular with a card, but you will not be able to buy berries nearby)

Nice entertainment) It is only important to take into account: the cost of 1 manat, payment only in cash, gives change only from 5 and 10 manats. Upstairs there is a great observation deck and a cozy cafe with a view of the city)

It's a beautiful place! There is a panorama of the whole city! Lots of greenery and flowers! There are other attractions nearby. You can go up by funicular or taxi, it is better to go down to the sea on foot! You'll definitely like it!

The funicular itself is only a quick way to get up approx. There are no views from it, plus queues. The price is very low, but only in cash. But I must have a very beautiful panorama of the city. It is better to arrive in the morning so that the sun does not dazzle when photographing.

A comfortable and spacious funicular to the observation deck. Travel is only for cash, which is used to purchase travel cards. Opening hours are from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. There is a pedestrian staircase nearby.

It was great, repaired, restored, the cars were changed, the stations were put in order. The operating mode is, of course, a minus, not only are there huge queues, but the schedule is not regulated by the load.

Standing in line to go upstairs is definitely worth it. Moreover, it won't be long to wait - the trailer is very spacious, for about 20 people. In July 2024, the price was per person: 1 manat-to go up, 1 manat- to go down

It was hot and there were a lot of people. I walked, walked for 10-15 minutes, and after 5 minutes the others arrived. There is a waiting room with air conditioning and all amenities upstairs, but not downstairs. The observation deck should be searched, there are no signs. And so a beautiful view of Baku, everything is at a glance, I did not walk up in vain.

Just the beauty and highlight of the city of Baku, who has not been and has not taken a ride on the funicular, I advise you to do it without fail, the fare is 1 Manat in one direction, everything is fine and high-quality after the reconstruction, both descent and ascent takes about 3 minutes, the main thing is after you climb up, you can walk along the observation deck and along the Mountain park and enjoy the wonderful views of the city !

Well, it's a strange place. You're standing in line. The uncle charges 1 manat per person, there is no discount for children. They give you a ticket, and you immediately hand it over to another guy one step later. You ride the funicular for 5 minutes and that's it. Such fun should be free.

There are no complaints about the work of the funicular, it is beautiful. But there are a lot of stairs, if you are carrying a wheelchair or wheelchair with you, you will have to carry them on yourself, and there are a lot of steps.

It seems cool. But in fact, it's a 3-4-minute climb. In the office. Part of the way is in the tunnel. At the top you will find a viewing platform with a panoramic view of the city. By the way, the funicular does not operate every 10 minutes, as stated on the website. We arrived at 10:20 (opening at 10) and the tourists were standing on the stairs and waiting. When enough people had gathered, we were let in.

You can take a ride for fun. The cost is only 1 manat. In addition, this is a short way to the observation deck and the alley of the shahids. There is a great view of Baku and Primorsky Boulevard from above.

The funicular can be considered as a transport to the observation deck, and not as an independent entertainment. The purchase of tickets is poorly organized, the pleasure of a beautiful view through the observation windows is not received, since especially smart passengers stand next to them, instead of taking their seat, thereby interfering with other people.

To be honest, I lowered my grade only for a strange attitude. You can wait in line for an hour. Moreover, the trailer will arrive, people will already be standing in it, but it will not leave. They launch "their own" there, and you stand further away. The ticket purchase system is strange, there is a person standing and buying at the vending machine, probably this is done so that people do not slow down the queue. I don't know what prevents people from taking it outside so that they can buy it themselves and already come in with a ticket. Otherwise, it's clean, fast, and comfortable.

If you are in Baku, you definitely need to take a ride. The funicular was actually rebuilt in 2012. The fare is one manat. This is a one-person one-way trip. It is better to pay in cash. It connects Bahram-Gur station with the Alley of Martyrs. Monday is a day off. I work until 20:00. Fast, convenient and cheap. No types of travel documents are valid.

Check the box once. The queue is small. You can pay 1 manat in cash or with a foreign card. It's not much to drive, but at least you don't have to stomp up the stairs. And you can go down the stairs already. There is a very pretentious restaurant upstairs))

The funicular is a small but very cozy trailer that moves smoothly and without jolts up the slope. The trip to the observation deck takes only a few minutes, and this time flies by unnoticed thanks to the beautiful views outside the window. The fare on the funicular is only 1 manat, which makes it affordable for every tourist. I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy the beautiful views of the city and take wonderful photos as a keepsake! :) Sincerely, Apartments Crown39 Comfortable accommodation in the center of Kaliningrad for daily rent

You can also take pictures of the Flame Towers at the top and visit the Upland Park, where there is a beautiful observation deck.
