hello guys,
As a tourist I will soon need a SIM card for internet; which one would you recommend? Is it advisable to buy one at Baku Airport? What prices should I expect?
Hey people! I will be visiting your beautiful country this month from 25th to 1st of November(6 days) I need help figuring out transportation and reccomendations! I mostly want to visit Baku, Gabala,Quoba and Sheki.
Please suggest the order in which i should visit them and how to commute between them. I am finding it difficult to find commute options online.
My flight is from Baku to and from my country.
Thankyou!
as its pretty much the case in the entire world, your in big trouble if you disagree with what the president or the ruling party is sensitive about
and in some cases the ruler is very strict about what is actually bad for the country but good for him personally
so the question is, how much does government wants to f with you in the matters that don't relate to it
is it like china where its a crime to use cash to pay your taxi driver and you should use their specific app and specific banking system(spyware, presumably) for the government to be able to control 100% of what ever you do( Authoritarianism) or Azerbaijan is actually liberal when it comes to what doesn't harm the ruler(corrupt liberalism, true liberalism is out of question as far as i know)
Guys, I am a software engineer about to move from Qatar to Azerbaijan. I have no idea about life in Baku and I really need assistance in these areas:
What are the most important apps to install? Examples include: Food delivery, eCommerce/shopping apps, Cab services, Govt services, House rentals and leasing car etc. All the major apps that are needed to have a stress free life.
Which area is perfect for living in Baku. I would be looking for areas near a marina or the beach. I would prefer a good view.
Which bank is perfect for all the services. Not looking to open accounts in many banks. Just one is preferred.
Guys please help. I will be moving in the next 20 days.
Thanx!!
Can anyone recommend a camera repair shop in Baku that may be qualified to perform internal maintenance on sensors and internal lens mechanisms?
Not looking for warranty work, just someone who knows their way around lens assemblies.
Çox sagolun

Salam, V2 Myheritage test eden var? Resultlar necedir?
If you have old, retro photos I can enhance them with AI. Bought some AI Enhancer two weeks ago, run out of ideas and still left some credits.
Why are our people so keen to bring down the achievements of our country? Why do our people forget all of the atrocities and injustices committed towards us? Why, instead of fighting back against anti-Azerbaijani, anti-Turkic propaganda, are we shooting ourselves in the leg?
First of all, I want to talk about the dictatorship in our country. Yes, the political situation in our country isn't the best. We don't have democracy; we have a lot of corruption. We can't fully trust anything that the government does. But it is also true that the people who believe that everything is false are as smart as the people who believe that everything is true. It is good to be suspicious, especially in our current situation, but I see many people hating on absolutely everything our government does. Some are even disappointed by our win in the Second Karabakh War. I understand that it very well could be a way to solidify his position, but sometimes the goals of the government and the goals of the people are the same. This war was conducted brilliantly, swiftly, with as few losses as possible. To be honest, I didn't even think it was possible for us to get Karabakh back until it happened. And people still find ways to hate. Upcoming COP29 is another example of such behavior. Many people are negative about it. Yes, maybe it is going to put a strain on city transportation, but think of the benefits that might come with COP29: foreign investments, more recognition on the international arena, new technologies, etc. What I want to say is that you need to think of all the motives of our government and country before trying to claim that it is bad. And remember when you bring your country down in front of everyone, you do not only bring down our current government but also all the people that have ever lived here, all the people that fought bravely for our country, and all the people who dedicated their lives for out nation.
The next thing I want to touch on is the short memory of our nation. I see a lot of people on this sub trying to advocate for peace with Armenia, to be positive towards them. And frankly, I don't understand it. Did you forget that they massacred and displaced our people from Zangezur? Did you forget Khojaly? Did you forget the First Karabakh War? Did you forget all 30 years of occupation? Their disgusting behavior isn't only related to military actions. Do you not see how much disinformation they spread about us, and are still spreading? Armenians completely shattered our reputation, especially among Western governments and people. They steal our music, food, dances, culture, territory. Even a lot of Wikipedia articles don't belong to us. Half of the occupied lands had a majority Azerbaijani population. They do everything to undermine our national identity. Never forget how much emotional, economic, and physical damage they caused to us. And yet they show no remorse for that. They are only peaceful right now because they were defeated. If there will be an opportunity for them to humiliate us, they will definitely use it. They are not ready to be at peace with, and they are not trying to be.
I just want our people to wake up. If you are not going to support your country, nobody will. And every one of you has all the reasons to be proud and supportive of your nation. Yaşasın Azərbaycan🇦🇿❤️
Səhər oyandım və gördüm ki bütün evdən neft qoxusu gəlir... Başqa hiss edənlər var?
I will be travelling to Baku for COP29 in November. I have celiac disease (ie must eat gluten free) and am naturally concerned about finding safe foods while travelling, while also wanting to explore and enjoy the local cuisine.
Thanks in advance! Looking forward to visiting (and eating)

Hi
I am a 22M Pakistani and I want to travel to Azerbaijan with a friend for 10 days starting from 26th November.
What are some must-visit place outside of Baku? And how much time should we ideally spend in Baku? Lastly, are there any precautions we should take?
Thank you!
I’m staying in Baku for 3 days then off to ganja for 2 days, so how’s the weather like in both places? I know I will need hoodies and jackets but how thick do they have to be. Keep in mind I’ve been living in the Middle East and it’s hot desert most of my life
Is it popular in Azerbaijan to ship goods direct from China via services like Pandabuy or are you mostly limited to shipping via 3rd party shippers who reship at an additional cost?
Given how easy it is to ship direct from China for free/low cost to Europe/North America and how the consumer goods market in Azerbaijan is limited and high priced for many staple goods, is online ordering from China direct now more common given they are much closer to Azerbaijan than other markets?
Are Azerbaijani customs going to inspect every package and evaluate declared values or are they relaxed for shipments of 8kg or less with declared value under $300usd? Eg. If you order a few t shirts and declare value of $50usd are you going to have to pay some tariffs or have the t-shirts inspected and assessed at higher values?
I notice a lot of stores in Baku selling counterfeit clothing and bags from China (maybe some from Türkiyə) but they are pricing them at ridiculous prices (eg 800₼ for a bag you can buy for 75-100₼ shipped from China to Europe/North America)....this makes me wonder if they are able to due to customs deals with limited resellers and not available for the average person?
If it's the case you must use reshippers to send your package through customs, any recommendations to use with AliExpress, Pandabuy, DHGate etc?
I waited for Halloween all year, our people are boring
It's my last day in Baku and man I love this city already and don't wanna go back but have to.
Thinking to end this trip on a good poppy note, asking fellow friends if anyone is up for a beer & pizza?
Have some few places shortlisted but open to try new places too.
Not that the content is important here, but the fact that such news titles were not even imaginable a short time ago is telling. Probably, the Armenian side softened its position as Georgian Dream officially won the elections in Georgia and a new revolution seems less likely, and there is an increasing probability of democrats losing the elections this year. It is just my thoughts and you don't have to agree.
