Baku with children

A stroller-friendly rhythm matters more than chasing every attraction
The Boulevard, the funicular and the fire hills win most children over. Keep outdoor time short on windy days and build in mall and café breaks.

Parks & walks

Ride the funicular
Children love the short climb up to Highland Park and the view of the Flame Towers.
Mud volcanoes
Older children enjoy the bubbling grey mud at Gobustan; bring old shoes and wet wipes.
February wind off the Caspian is strong and cold. Pack hats, gloves and windproof layers for the children, and keep a spare pair of shoes for Gobustan.
