A short private tour to the places that made Azerbaijan the “Land of Fire”. A private car and driver pick you up at your hotel in Baku and bring you back in about 4–5 hours.
First we visit the Ateshgah Fire Temple in Surakhani, built where natural gas comes out of the ground. Then we drive to Yanardag, the “Burning Mountain”, where flames burn non-stop on the hillside.
