Heydar Aliyev International Airport → 28 May Metro Station (Bakı city centre)
💡 Buy a BakiKart at the airport machine (1 AZN card + top-up). Bus runs to 28 May then walk 10 minutes to Caspian Hostel or get a short metro ride.

Top Attractions in Bakı
💡 Walk the section between the Carpet Museum and the Mugham Centre—fewer crowds, better sea views. Free public water fountains dotted along the route.
💡 Enter via the Gosha Gala Qapisi (Double Gate)—less touristy than the main gate. Grab a free map from the tourist info booth just inside. Closed to cars after 10pm, so it's quiet.
💡 Buy a 50-qəpik corn-on-the-cob from one of the women with portable grills near the corner. Best eaten sitting on the low wall by the clock tower. Avoid the overpriced 'art' photographers here.
💡 Don't take photos of the graves without reading the plaques—locals find it disrespectful. The walk up from Sahil metro via the cable car path is steep but takes 15 minutes.
💡 Come at sunset when the light throws sharp shadows across the curves. The grass ramps on the south side are quiet and open 24/7.
