Historic centre of Ordubad

Ordubad

A historic town centre with traditional streets, orchards and monuments connected with Silk Road urban life.

Allow time for the scale of streets, gardens and residential surroundings rather than only a single monument. Ask before entering courtyards, and distinguish public lanes from private household or agricultural space.

People live and work here. Respect private courtyards and arrange any workshop or home visits with the hosts.

Nakhchivan is separated from the main part of the country. Plan transport separately rather than assuming a continuous road journey from Baku.
