It was built on land where natural gas was burned eternally by Zoroastrian believers who travelled from the province of Multan in India to worship. These ancient fires are believed to have given Azerbaijan its name, which is thought by some researchers to mean the 'Land of Fires'. Yanardag fire mountain: Azerbaijan is historically called the Land of Fire, and it is not for the sake of a witty remark. At a whim of nature, the land of this Caucasian country located on the picturesque coast of the Caspian Sea, is replete with underground sources of oil and gas that long for blowing out. Natural gas in the Azerbaijan bowels is so much that it comes to the surface over and over again. In some places, a match dropped accidentally or deliberately, a torch, or any spark can ignite the gas, which will keep on burning until it fully exhausts. In times of old, Azerbaijan was a country of fire-worshipers, followers of the Zoroastrian cult. People believed that fire sources were the manifestation of divine power, they worshiped them, building altars and temples. Lunch in the local restaurant in Baku Proceed to Haydar Aliyev museum – photo session from outside. Afterwards visiting to the biggest shopping mall in Baku – Ganjlik mall.

  • Walled City of Baku with the Shirvanshah's Palace and Maiden Tower (2000)
    Walled City of Baku with the Shirvanshah's Palace and Maiden Tower (2000) Baku (Azerbaijani: Bakı), sometimes known as Baky or Baki, is the capital, the largest city, and the largest port of Azerbaijan. Located on the southern shore of the Absheron Peninsula, the city consists of two principal parts: the downtown and the old Inner City (21,5 ha). As of January 1, 2003 the population was 1,827,500 of which 153,400 were internally displaced persons and 93,400 refugees.Baku is a member of Organization of World Heritage Cities and Sister Cities International. The city is also bidding for the 2016 Summer Olympics. Baku is divided into eleven administrative districts (Azizbeyov, Binagadi, Qaradagh, Narimanov, Nasimi, Nizami, Sabayil, Sabunchu, Khatai, Surakhany and Yasamal) and 48 townships. Among these are the townships on islands in the Bay of Baku and the town of Oil Rocks built on stilts in the Caspian Sea, 60 km away from Baku. The first written evidence for Baku is related to the 6th century AD. The city became important after an earthquake destroyed Shemakha and in the 12th century, ruling Shirvanshah Ahsitan I made Baku the new capital. In 1501 shah Ismail I Safavi laid a siege to Baku. At this time the city was however enclosed with the lines of strong walls, which were washed by sea on one side and protected by a wide trench on land. In 1540 Baku was again captured by the Safavid troops. In 1604 the Baku fortress was destroyed by Iranian shah Abbas I. On June 26, 1723 after a lasting siege and firing from the cannons Baku surrendered to the Russians.

  • Public Association for Assistance to Free Economy on Condition of Right
    Public Association for Assistance to Free Economy On condition of right to property in 2011-2012 in Azerbaijan Authors: Ulviyya Asadzada Ziya Guliyev Editor: Zohrab Ismayil Corrector: Kamala Aghayeva Baku, Qanun Publication House, 2013 Funded by National Endowment for Democracy. CONTENTS ABBREVIATIONS ECHR European Court of Human Rights PAAFE Public Union for Assistance to Free Economy OJSC Open Joint-Stock Company SOCAR State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic UN United Nations SSC State Statistics Committee SCPI State Committee on Property Issues PU Public Union EA Executive Authority PUHRE Public Union on Human Rights Education Ltd. Limited Liability Company HCPU Housing Communal Production Union Navy Naval Forces IPD Institute for Peace and Democracy Mass-media Mass-media 1. SUMMARY The research shows that the causes of the violations of property rights is not a sectoral. Such violations are due to many reasons. One of the main reasons behind the violation of the right to property is similar to other violations of law is itt’s inability to ensure rule of law, dependence of courts on executive structures, politically motivated decisions. İn this regard, attention is brought to the lack of independence of the judicial system of Azerbaijan, and the cases of corruption in the court system in a number of international reports. While analysing the cases of violation of the right to property, in 2011 it becomes evident that the courts have made decisions in favour of the executive authority structures instead of citizens. This decreases the belief of citizens toward the court, causes a situation as if they have “voluntarily” abandoned their properties and “gave up”.

    WELCOME BACK TO BAKU Dear friends, On behalf of Baku City Circuit, please let me welcome you to the third successive Formula 1 race weekend in Azerbaijan. Last year’s race in Baku was widely recognised as the most exciting and dramatic race of the year – if not the decade – by members of the media, teams, drivers and the global F1 fanbase alike. It truly was a race that had it all culminating in the most unexpected podium line up in many years. The fact that this historic race occurred under our new event title as the FORMULA 1 AZERBAIJAN GRAND PRIX filled us with an even greater sense of pride and satisfaction for a job well done. This year we once again welcome the world to Baku at the slightly earlier date of late April to bear witness to the awe-inspiring sight of F1 cars negotiating one of the fastest and most testing circuits in Formula 1. Baku City Circuit’s winding, narrow sequences, 90-degree turns and high-speed straights - all set against the breath- taking backdrop of Baku’s UNESCO-protected old city, magnificent skylines and beautiful seaside promenade - have proven to be a major challenge to the current F1 grid, resulting in last year’s spectacular outcome and many on-track altercations. We are very confident of a similar explosion of drama, speed and bravery occurring once again for the 2018 edition. Furthermore, the off-track entertainment will be bigger and better than ever before with world-class music, visual and conceptual artists once again performing all along the specially constructed Fan Zone all weekend.

THE CASE OF ICHERI SHEHER, BAKU Andrey Ivanov♣ Abstract Actual conservation charters not reflect practically the “soul of place” phenomenon that is important for appropriateness and feasibility of the conservation programs in the sites of urban heritage. Some attempts made by the author to raise the interest to the soul of place issue in the historic cities of former USSR countries are show that a possibility of its considering exists despite the resistance of convention conservation practice. The Integrated Area Management Action Plan (IAMAP) for Icheri Sheher, the World Heritage site in Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, included in the list of the World heritage in danger due to the vigorous redevelopment, was elaborated by international expert team with the author participation in 2006-2007 according to universal rules of the international urban conservation consulting. The mental opportunity of creation of “another project” for this place more targeted to the genius loci’s understanding and preservation is discussed. The development of methods of the soul of place investigation and the categories needed is in the very beginning only. Anyway it is stressed that the soul of place issue must become a significant useful component of urban conservation
