Azerbaijan is filled with incredible natural wonders and diverse land formations, yet it’s often overlooked by travelers who are unaware of the beauty it holds. Nicknamed “the land of fire,” it is home to Yanar Dağ (meaning “burning mountain”), a mountain near the Caspian Sea that hosts a naturally burning gas fire that has remained alight for over 65 years. Much of its architecture is built in harmony with the natural landscape; with churches carved into cliff sides and villages nestled in lush valleys. This video takes you through Azerbaijan, past rugged cypress forests, cascading waterfalls, and cliffs that blaze like fire when hit by the sun.
