About this experience
I invite you to an exciting adventure that reveals the secrets and amazing natural phenomena of the Absheron Peninsula! You will discover the 'Fire Temple' and immerse yourself in the history of Zoroastrianism. Witness the perpetually burning Yanardag Mountain and uncover its mystery. Unbelievable Martian landscapes and the unique Pink Lake are also included in our program.
What to Expect
Ateshgyakh Zoroastrian Temple. The ancient Fire Worshipper's temple was founded in the 17th-18th centuries on the site of eternal flames, where natural gas emerges from the ground. Thanks to this, it is called 'Ateshgyakh', which translates to 'House of Fire'. Here you will learn in detail about the world's first monotheistic religion called Zoroastrianism.
Yanardag Eternal Flame Mountain. This is one of the most amazing places on the Absheron Peninsula! It is a flame engulfed slope that cannot be extinguished by rain or sand. It has been burning for several millennia.
Masazir Pink Lake. Also known as the salty or dead lake, there are only 8 such natural wonders in the world. Depending on the lighting and salt concentration in the water, the lake takes on different shades of pink.
Rainbow Mountains. On the way back to Baku, we will see one of the rarest phenomena in the world - rainbow or agate mountains with Martian landscapes.
