Mountains are always beautiful, and mountains with a history are doubly so! Our Neolithic ancestors settled here on the rocks scattered by earthquakes. In their spare time, they hollowed out drawings on the stones. There are also domestic animals, buffaloes, even dogs, and wild deer, wolves, wild boars. Pregnant women, hunters, shamans, dancing men... What they just did not depict.
And what gorgeous views open from these mountains, that's something. You can see the prison below, our guide said it was for "lifers".
I can say with confidence that it is necessary to go here, an interesting place.
You can touch the ancient history here. Rock carvings, ancient human sites, an interesting exposition in the museum. Admission is 19 manats (August 24). It is better not to go with the group - it is long and tedious. We rented a car, drove around the whole area within 50 km from Baku in a day. We spent an hour and a half on this landmark. It would have been much longer with the band.
There are also a lot of Chinese tourists in large groups.
It's worth a visit, but not wow).
