Audio tour Baku. Primorsky Boulevard.

Started 150 years ago as a 20-meter narrow strip of land between the fortress and the sea, today Primorsky Boulevard is the best city embankment in the expanses of the former Soviet Union. And not only him.

Unfortunately, the river of time is merciless, including to this boulevard.  Today, the Baku embankment in its former form lives only in the memory of the Baku residents of the older generation. The boulevard today and the boulevard a hundred years ago, as they say in Odessa, are two big differences. Numerous reconstructions, rises and descents of sea level and the expansion of the embankment mercilessly destroyed everything old and dilapidated.

We suggest that you mentally, as if on a time machine, move into the past and walk along the boulevard, which is no longer there. With us you will find out:

- what did the women do at the site of the Palace for Hand Games;

- why on the site of the modern children's carousel, in 1909, 15 passengers with "mauser" were removed from the steamer "Tsesarevich" ;

- on the site of which fountain was the naval aviation of the Russian Empire born,

and many other interesting stories. And at the end of the route, you can take a ride on a modern pleasure boat in the Baku water area.  

Well, let's go ahead?
