  • Tourism Attraction- Azerbaijan
    Azerbaijan 1) Top places to visit: Maiden Tower, Baku: Maiden Tower is a monumental construction at the height of 29.5 meters and diameter of 16.5 meters. Maiden Tower situated in the southern part of Icheri Sheher (Old City) and is a symbol of Baku. The Tower consists of 8 tiers and looks like a huge stone cylinder, constructed on an out- crop of coastal rock, which drops off steeply. A stone dome with a round hole blocks each tier of the tower. A connection between the tiers was accomplished with the help of a spiral stone staircase, laid in the thick part of the wall. Shirvanshahs Palace Ensemble, Baku Its structures are located on the highest point of one of the hills of Icheri Sheher. It is called "Baku Acropolis" by right. The ensemble is spread over three terraces and can be seen from the sea. 1 It consists of 9 constructions crowned with domes: "Divan-khane" with a beautiful portal, a chapel with cupola, burial-vault, a double-cupola mosque with a graceful minaret, a mausoleum of the medieval mathematician and astronomer Seid Yahya Bakuvi, East gates and a bath. Visitors are amazed by building’s perfection and minute stone carvings. It is truly worth to travel thousands of kilometers for seeing such beauty. It has been preserved in its youth for ages and reached us in all its beauty. Ateshgah Temple, Baku Ateshgah Temple "House of Fire" is located in 30 kilometers from the centre of Baku. These fires have been esteemed from the ancient shrine of fire-worshippers-Zoroastrians.

No part of this book may be reproduced in any form, except for brief quotations in articles or reviews, without the written permission of the copyright owner. Any quotations must acknowledge the source. ISBN 978-91-86545-00-0 From the Authors Writing this book was not an easy task. We had to address a wide range and baffling variety of questions that needed answers and study a vast amount of relatively new information, while numerous problems called for detailed investigation and analysis. However, this did not dampen our enthusiasm; we have been working every day for the past two years, driven primarily by our sense of civic duty, as well as by the purely academic challenge it poses. We are fully aware of the fact that the government and the people of Azerbaijan, together with the leading states and international organiza- tions, will have to work hard to liberate the Armenia-occupied territories. Strictly speaking, their post-conflict status will begin only when the Armenian occupation ends. Thus, the term “post-conflict territories” as applied today is premature, but will be used throughout the text to describe these territories. We are convinced that sooner or later, these territories will be liberated, and that post-conflict rehabilitation should be planned well in advance.
