Moving Statue


This is a picture shot from our company bus in Rashid Babudov street while coming from the city to the fabrication yard in Salyan highway.. Shot and send by one of my dear friend from Baku.

The statue used to stand tall in front of funikyulor - it is a statue of a strong man about to kill a monster Dragon using a huge sword. This picture is taken sometime in early September this year,, guess is that this was transported for maintenance (i doubt), maybe this is abolished for future construction. Some construction is going on in the site where this statue used to be.

Entrance to enter the tower..







Different views of a magnificent structure which dates back to VI to XII centuries still stands high proudly in the centre of Baku city. This can be considered as the best tourist spot in the middle of Baku...
