  Special Interest Tour (4 days)
   
 

Over the century-old history the Azerbaijan people have created a rich and distinctive culture, a major part of which is decorative and applied art. This form of art rooted in hoary antiquity is represented by a wide range of handicrafts, such as chasing, jewelry, engraving in metal, carving in wood, stone and bone, carpet making, lacing, pattern weaving and printing, knitting and embroidery. Each of these types of decorative art, evidence of the wealth of the spiritual world and endowments of the Azerbaijan nation, is very much in favor here.
