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.

I love visiting UNESCO sites, and the Palace of the Shirvanshahs in Baku is truly special. The architecture, history, and atmosphere inside the old city make it a place that connects you to the past in such a beautiful way.

Entry fee is 15AZN. Once you get inside there is a special museum kind of where guard will block you entering telling ticket is not included as entry price should have been 20AZN. This was not initially mentioned while purchasing the entry ticket. Really not worth visiting for the price. We entered at 6PM on Saturday and palace was closed by 6:50PM. Entry they were allowing almost till 6:30PM.

Beautiful palace worth visiting , nestled in the heart of old town Baku and easily accessible by foot , we spent few hours looking at this incredible place and were very lucky to get informative commentary by one of the security officers who helped us navigate this place more easily , highly recommended for history lovers

This is a nice monument to visit. You don't need a guide. You can walk around it at your leisure and take in the rich history of this place. It's a small palace but well preserved.

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.
