Palace of the Shirvanshahs

Very nice place to visit and immerse in the history. It takes around 40 minutes to visit all sites. Tickets price is good. In the site you can make some photos in the traditional decor. This place is situated in the heart of the old town. I recommend to visit Palace of the Shirvanshahs.

If you're into history, this is a must visit on Baku. They have partial payment for the sections in the complex. If you visit the main complex (which I believe is enough for a regular tourist) you pay around 15 manat as a foreign, which is OK. Inside you'll find tombs, court, mosque, yard and pretty much a palace complex overall. There also souvenir shops inside, though items were a bit overpriced. I only reduce 1 star because the information on the labels wasn't enough in my opinion. I'm not sure if it was done intentionally (so that you hire a guide?) or not, but it was very brief what you read about a structure.

A very beautiful and historic place to visit. Great for those who love culture and architecture. However, I recommend introducing a combined tourist pass for all attractions in the area buying separate tickets (around 15 Manat each) becomes quite expensive. Overall, a great experience!

This is a royal place that tells historical stories in its light. It is located in the old city of Baku. The entrance ticket price is 15 manats. It includes a group of artistic, cultural and archaeological life that narrates the details and events.

It's located in the old town. There is 10 min walk uphill on cobbled stone road through street lined with restaurants and souvenir shops. There is tomb of king and his family members, family quarters and broken bathrooms. There are many steps. Place gives a peek into history and architecture. The yellow stone looks beautiful

A UNESCO heritage site, this is well preserved and relatively busy and bustling with tourists during the morning hours. A tour guide is recommended so that he/she can take you on a historic journey with facts that makes this place a lot more interesting. Thoroughly enjoyed it

Ok-ish experience. Everything inside is a recreation of the original stuff from the palace as the palace was colonized and all things were stolen from the palace. So no point spending 15 azn looking at digital screens and digital Printed paintings.

Beautiful place. I took the 3 combo ticket (Maiden tower, palace and the underground baths). The palace offers a nice view of the city and it is located all the way up in the old city. Would advise folks not to go during the afternoon since the sun (even for early September) was quite a bit much so I can only imagine how hot it must be in summers here. Pro tip: wear a hat/cap and carry water at all times to stay hydrated
