A modern symbol of the Land of Fire!
Sep 2019
Azerbaijan is known, since ancient times, as the "Land of Fire", mainly due to the large concentration of gas under the Absheron Peninsula and the natural flames that have been burning, throughout the centuries, in many parts of the country. These three skyscrapers, the "Flame Towers", represent these flames and are already a modern symbol of Baku and of Azerbaijan! They were inaugurated in 2012 and were projected by HOK (formerly Hellmuth, Obata + Kassabaum), an American design, architecture, engineering and urban planning firm. The buildings are occupied by apartments, offices and also by a hotel. You will pass many, many times by the "Flame Towers" while staying in Baku and I strongly recommend its evening observation, when the led motion displays are on. Unforgettable! Enjoy!

Flame Towers
May 2022
Flame Towers is a trio of skyscrapers, the height of the tallest tower being 182 m (597 ft).The three flame-shaped towers symbolize the element of fire ,a reference to Azerbaijan's motto, "The Land of Fire".The facades of the three Flame Towers function as a large display screen at night with the use of more than 10,000 high-power LED luminaires, supplied by the Osram subsidiary Traxon Technologies and Vetas Electric Lighting.Flame Towers is situated on a elevation on Highland Park and hence can be seen from most parts of the city.

The most memorable stay in Azerbaijan
Oct 2021 • Family
It was an absolutely luxurious stay at the Fairmont. I stayed here with my family for 3 nights and absolutely loved the hospitality, quick service. The hotel is located centrally and it was very easy to explore the city from here.
The sea view from our room was breathtaking. It’s a panoramic view of the entire city. Gunay from the front office was always available for fantastic advice on where to go and how best to explore the city.

Azerbaijan is amazing and staying at the Fairmont Flame tower made it even more memorable

Hugely significant buildings in Baku
Nov 2019 • Friends
The flame towers are hugely significant in Baku and are very imposing and being built on hilly terrain gives them further dominance. The towers comprise of three flame shaped high rise buildings which were very impressive viewed close up which we did whilst visiting Martyrs' Lane. The flame towers are covered with LED screens with flame movements projected at night. It is quite a spectacle and one of the best places to see illuminated towers is from the promenade.

Icon of Baku
Feb 2020
Visit to Baku is incomplete if you don’t visit the flame towers. Azerbaijan has lots of natural gas and oil reserves and the shape of these towers resemble flames. The best part is the colourful LED animations which starts from evening and goes on till early morning. It looks more beautiful than one can describe in words.

These towers are beautifully designed and illuminated. The lights on the towers give the impression as if two big burning flames are standing tall. The different colored light displays the Azerbaijan flag and a person waving the national flag.
Must see place.

The best feature of Baku
Feb 2020
A sight to see during the day but don’t go during peak hour....traffic is so hectic. Visit at night and go through the park to get to a stairway which gives you a bird eye view. It’s very cold in winter here so I suggest you go at like sunset. Do not go at night for tour to this area as it’s close proximity to the sea and it’s extremely cold.

Stunning from outside - nothing inside
May 2022 • Friends
Flame Towers are one of the most stunning buildings globally. Beautiful in day time but stunning also night time with all led animations. Truly a landmark to see.

But there is nothing inside - don't bother going to see them closer... Only Fairmont hotel, which has a bar on 26th floor though - could offer nice city views but open only on the evenings!

Visited the monument in the evening. Cold mist in the evening made the atmosphere pleasant. Witnessed the perenial flame in the memory of lost soldiers. Very good spot with many photographic spots around. The view of the city in the night was breathtaking.
