Azerbaijan, a former Soviet republic, sits between the Caspian Sea and the Caucasus Mountains, bridging Asia and Europe. Its capital, Baku, is known for its medieval walled Inner City, home to the 15th-century Palace of the Shirvanshahs and the iconic stone Maiden Tower, both of which stand as striking landmarks on the city’s skyline.
