Nizami Metro Station is a transport stop with a literary connection. Opened in nineteen seventy-six, it is known for mosaic panels linked to the work of the poet Nizami Ganjavi. It forms part of the architectural heritage of Baku's underground system.
The mosaics reward more than a quick glance. Look for the scenes and figures, and for how they are set into the station's public spaces. At the same time, this is a working metro. Keep passenger routes clear, follow the rules and check the current guidance on photography. The best visit gives the artwork attention without getting in the way of someone's everyday journey.
