Day 3: BAKU & ABSHERON


Breakfast at the hotel. Let`s begin our interesting tour around “Land of Fire”! Our excursion will start with visiting Gala
village (40 min drive from Baku), which today is the State Historical Ethnographic Reserve and Open Air Museum
offering the opportunity to see the original lifestyle of Azerbaijani people dated back to 10th-19th centuries. It is a
unique place where you can not only make a tour into the past, but also try to bake bread in ancient oven
“tandir”, weave a carpet, smear with clay in a pottery workshop or feed camels and horses.

Our next stop is Ateshgah Fire Temple in the village of Surakhani that for centuries has been attracting crowds of thrill
seekers. Built in the 17th–18th centuries around naturally burning flames which were previously worshipped by
Zoroastrians, the site then had become an important place of pilgrimage for fire-worshipping Hindus until the 1880s.
Today it houses a well-designed open air museum.

And the final stop of our “fiery tour” is State Historical, Cultural and Natural Reserve Yanardag (literary “Burning
Mountain”), a complex built around the hill located on the top of the natural gas pocket causing continuous flame
eruption. Most probably the fire has been burning in Yanardag for over 20,000 years. These natural flames were
described by Marco Polo in the 13th century and continue to mesmerize those who visit the site.

On the way back visiting Heydar Aliyev Centre (without entering) designed by world-famous architect Zaha Hadid. It is
vast and jaw-dropping majestic statement of fluid 21st-century architecture forming abstract waves and peaks that
seem to melt together. The real delight is simply pondering and photographing the extraordinary exterior from ever-
changing angles. Make a stop next to the popular “I love Baku” sign to take some photos.
Back to hotel.

Day 4: BAKU & GOBUSTAN


Breakfast at the hotel. Pick up from hotel & drive to Gobustan.(40-50min from Baku).
Have you ever seen where civilization has started? Seek no more, because Gobustan Historical-Artistic Preserve is
exactly what you need! Included in the UNESCO heritage list, being one of the cradles of human civilization, Gobustan
located barely one hour drive from Baku. It has an astonishing collection of over 6,000 ancient petroglyphs depicting
the ways of life dating back as far as 40,000 years. Innovative technology will help you to get closer to the prehistoric
times in Gobustan State Historical-Artistic Museum using its touch screens provided with special multimedia programs,
educational and entertaining games, interactive displays, 3D video, etc.

Not far from Gobustan there is a second miracle that will amaze you no less than the prehistoric drawings on the rocks -
these are Mud Volcanoes. NASA geologists have concluded that they are similar in structure to the hills on the planet
Mars. Azerbaijan ranks first in terms of the number of mud volcanoes: 350 out of 800 mud volcanoes in the world are
located here, one of which is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the largest in the world. (Visiting Mud Volcanoes
depends on weather conditions.)

On the way back to Baku you will stop next to the one of the most popular mosques in Baku. Built in the 13th century by
Shirvanshah Farrukhzad II Ibn Ahsitan II, Bibi Heybat Mosque was completely destroyed by the Bolsheviks in 1936 and
restored later in the end of the 20th century. It includes the shrine of Ukeyma Khanum (a descendant of the Prophet
Muhammad) and today is the spiritual center for the Muslims of the region and one of the major monuments of Islamic
architecture in Azerbaijan.

TOUR PROGRAM

Day 1: Arrival in Baku, meeting at the airport. Transfer to the hotel in Naftalan. The duration of the transfer
is 5-6 hours. Arrival at the hotel. Check-in. Free time.

Days 2-7: The main active ingredients of Naftalan oil are naphthenic hydrocarbons, which have analgesic, anti-
inflammatory, vasodilating and antiallergic effects. Thanks to all these properties, Naftalan therapy is
recognized as an indispensable method of treatment in many areas of medicine.
The main medical procedure is a Naftalan bath. For 8-10 minutes, the patient is placed in a bath filled
with Naftalan oil, preheated to a temperature of 37-38°C. Oil penetrates through the pores and then
exits the body, removing all toxins. At the end, the body is cleaned with special scrapers and wiped
with napkins. After that, the guest needs to take a warm shower and rest for an hour.
The procedure feels pleasant and comfortable. Many people compare oil to hot chocolate. But,
before plunging into this miraculous "chocolate" mass, it is necessary to undergo an examination and
tests, ultrasound and fluorography. After that, the doctor will explain which regimen should be
followed, what procedures can be performed, and will prepare a special program for you. The course
of treatment takes place under the supervision of a physician.

In addition to Naftalan baths, the sanatorium has many physiotherapeutic procedures: blue light,
laser, ultrasound, electrosleep, etc. In these procedures, Naftalan oil is used as a compress on a sore
spot.
