This gate is the first thing that welcomes the guests of the old town. They are perfectly preserved and immediately immerse you in an authentic atmosphere. The narrow streets and cozy cafes create a pleasant environment for walking and tasting local cuisine. It is important to remember that only locals can pass through these gates, so if you need a taxi, order it at the gate. This is especially true for guests staying in hotels in the old town.
An excellent historical place in Baku.We visited for two days, both in the afternoon and in the evening. Good tourist maps of the fortress of old Gorda are given at the entrance by tourism managers. Everyone watched and even saw a scene from the diamond hand accidentally played by the same tourists. We had fun!
Paired fortress gates or Shamakhi gates (Azerbaijan. Qoşa Qala qapıları "Gosha Gala gapılary" or Azerbaijan. Şamaxı qapısı "Shamakhy gapısı") — the gate located in the northern wall of the Baku fortress. It's a beautiful place.
