We lie in an unusual and healing black sand.

Enjoying the picturesque views, we will learn what this sand is so useful and why it is worth coming here with special slippers.

Delicious Azerbaijani tea combined with delicious jam

Lenkoran tea not only easily quenches your thirst, but also provides a good mood for the whole day. The flavor of this drink will be remembered for a long time. It is not comparable to European or Chinese teas. The preparation and serving of the drink is a special ritual, all the secrets of which are known only to indigenous Azerbaijanis. Fortunately, they not only welcome guests with warmth and generosity, but will also be happy to teach the rules of organizing a tea ceremony in Azerbaijani. After a delicious tasting of aromatic tea, you will have the opportunity to see how tea blooms on the tea plantations of Lankaran. After getting acquainted with the process of tea production in Lankaran, you will have the opportunity to purchase real Azerbaijani tea and unusual herbal additives to it.

A fascinating trip through the architectural pearls of the ancient city

Lankaran is the oldest city in Azerbaijan. And being here is simply impossible not to see its main historical sights. Especially since they, as well as the city itself, have an interesting history.

  • Hanegi - cult minaret complex

The cult buildings of Hanega are not only places of pilgrimage for a million Muslims, but also an unusually beautiful temple complex. Walking along the corridors of mosques and mausoleums, you yourself will understand why the Mongol conquerors did not dare to destroy the splendor of Hanega, and the Khan of the Golden Horde - Uzbek, having fallen in love with the architectural ensemble, brought here countless treasures.

  • Palace of Love

The palace of Mirahmed Khan Talyshsky is not for nothing called the Palace of Love. After all, Marikhmed Khan built it in honor of the “First Beauty of Transcaucasia” – his wife Tugra Khanum. You will hear their beautiful love story and learn what was the purpose of the multi-colored stained glass windows on the second floor.

  • Lankaran fortress

Unfortunately, today, the Lankaran fortress is far from what it was before. Now we can see with you only the ruins, and after all, until 1812 she reliably defended her city from enemy attacks. Why before 1812? We will find out on our journey!

  • Lenkoran lighthouse

Will we be able to pass the symbol of the city of Lankaran? Of course not! Moreover, during our acquaintance with the lighthouse, we will understand how hard the work of the lighthouse keeper is, figure out who can become one at all, and find out what role this tower was at one time in addition to its main purpose. Wow, that'll be interesting!

Stunning Yardimla Falls

The waterfalls of Yardimly hid high above sea level in the depths of centuries-old forests. This is an ideal place for those who want to hide from the bustle of the city, stay alone with nature, enjoy clean air and listen to the murmur of water flows, while being able to enjoy all the benefits of civilization. The silver brilliance of streams, the singing of falling water and the mesmerizing sounds of a dense forest - here it is, a magical fairy tale of Azerbaijan. And yet, absolutely everyone can fish in this peaceful atmosphere, and with the trout caught, professional cooks will prepare a juicy fish on the grill, which is perfectly combined with the delicious narcherab and local home wine.

Hyrcan Reserve - a branch of paradise on earth

The Hirkan National Park stores not only flora samples dating back to the age of dinosaurs, but also centuries-old monuments of the history of Azerbaijan. You will learn what relic trees, whose age has long passed 200 years, survived only in this forest kingdom, and what attracted the Nobel brothers like a magnet.

We will feel like indigenous people of Azerbaijan!

If desired, the perfect end of our trip will be a night in a traditional Azerbaijani house. This is a unique opportunity to get acquainted with the domestic situation, life and traditions of an ordinary Azerbaijani family. What could be better than to feel like a full-fledged inhabitant of the Eastern house for the whole night?
