Azerbaijan, where Caspian shoreline meets Caucasus horizon

Azerbaijan stretches from the shores of the Caspian Sea to the peaks of the Greater Caucasus, creating a landscape defined by contrast. Along the coastline, modern architecture rises beside medieval stone walls. Inland, alpine villages sit beneath dramatic ridgelines, and wide plains unfold under expansive skies. Positioned between Europe and Asia, the country reflects a layered identity shaped by architecture, cuisine, and centuries of cultural exchange.
