Russian Dolls - Fountain Square

Another picture from the fountain square area, a hawker selling Russian Dolls. The speciality of the dolls is that each doll contains about a dozen smaller dolls...
Fountain square is in the heart of Baku where all the major outlets are located. Bakuites come to fountain square for shopping and for a leasurely stroll.

Hyder Aliyev Park




Two views of the Hyder Aliyev park in Baku, with Milli Bank and ATA Bank buldings in the background. I would say this is the best park in Baku, with 3 nice fountains and some beautiful lamp posts...
The glass building is Milli Bank, and the bulding towards the right is ATA Bank bulding.
