A great place to hide from the sweltering heat and sip the local flavor. Inside there is a coffee shop, a coworking, a library, a souvenir shop, luggage storage and, of course, a museum exhibit. In my opinion, it is better to go with a guide or an audio guide — I was without them, and there was a great lack of explanations of the symbolism of ornaments and images on carpets. There are explanatory signs somewhere (in English and Azerbaijani), but the time was limited, so I missed a lot — the place was still amazing. There are few people, national music is playing, and women are weaving carpets in life mode. I want to come back here!

I liked the carpets more in the Heydar Aliyev Center. There are wonderful plots, bright colors and a sufficient story. The carpet museum has a fairly large space, there are carpets from past centuries, technologies and tools are presented, how carpets were woven, how wool was obtained. If I had only seen the exhibition at the Heydar Aliyev Center, I would have had more than enough impressions. I would advise you to look at the carpet museum from the street and go spend money elsewhere)

The architecture of the museum itself is very interesting, in the form of a half-unfolded carpet. The exposition itself is quite informative. We were very lucky with the guide , I learned a lot of new and interesting things from her . I highly recommend this museum!
