Sheki

Sheki is one of the most ancient and charming cities of Azerbaijan, located on the picturesque slopes of the Greater Caucasus. Once a major stop on the Silk Road, it is culturally rich and visually stunning.

The city is famous for its silk, intricate 'shebeke' (stained glass) craftsmanship, and the mouth-watering Sheki Halva. The Palace of Sheki Khans, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a masterpiece of miniature painting and medieval architecture, built without a single nail.
