Unfortunately we had only scheduled a day in Baku, arriving from Ashgabat at 3:00 a.m. and leaving on the night train to Tbilisi at 8:45 p.m. Had we known, we would have planned to stay longer. Fountain Square is a lovely area and feeds into Nizami (formerly Trade Street), which in my mind competes with some of the finest in... More

The place to be seen and watch the world go by :-) Also the only place in Azerbaijan that I have seen a beach of McDonalds! Blots of ex pat pubs and Irish themed boozers where you can enjoy a pint of Guinness with friends.

Fountain Sauare has been totally renovated since I first visited Baku, is much more open and lacks the fountains that was ince there.
