Baku was a pleasant surprise! Before my trip to the capital of <a href="http://www.virtualtourist. com/m/.133814/194/?s=A">Azerbaijan</a>, I'd seen pictures of "nodding donkeys" in a polluted environment, and apartment blocks stretching for miles. Nobody had told me about the well-preserved old town, the tree-lined promenade alongside the Caspian Sea, or the streets of the oil-boom town filled with shops, cafes and "beautiful people"... I'm not entirely happy with this page, but for now it will have to do...hopefully I will find time to improve it later...
PS What do people think about black and white photos on VT pages? The colour version of this photo is printed below...which should I keep? let me know please!:)
What's going on in Baku now?....<a href="http://www.bakusun.az:8101/">Baku Sun</a>
This is my view of Baku, which is not the official view of the city...for that, you'll have to visit <a href="http://5c.azeri.com/travel/">Azerbaijan Tourism</a>. |

He was also a very famous chemist and an academician. Baska sorularin varmi? ;-) Iyi gunler sana...
