The Majestic Shirvanshah Tomb: A Glimpse into Azerbaijani Heritage

Getting There

• Car

  From the center of Mountainous Shirvan, head west on the main road towards Baku. Follow the signs for 'Baku' and continue for approximately 45 kilometers. As you approach Baku, take the exit toward Sabayil. Once in Sabayil, use a GPS or navigation app to reach the coordinates 40.3662, 49.8328, which will lead you to the Shirvanshah tomb. There is parking available nearby, but be prepared for some limited spaces during busy hours.

• Public Transportation

  Start by taking a local bus from Mountainous Shirvan to Baku. The bus ride typically takes about 1 to 1.5 hours, depending on traffic. Once you arrive at the main bus station in Baku, transfer to a metro line or another bus heading towards Sabayil. The metro may take you closer to Sabayil. After getting off at the nearest station, you can either walk (approximately 15-20 minutes) or take a taxi to the Shirvanshah tomb at coordinates 40.3662, 49.8328. Expect to pay a small fare for the bus (around 0.30 AZN) and slightly more for the taxi if you choose that option.

• Taxi

  If you prefer a more direct route, you can always hire a taxi from anywhere in Mountainous Shirvan directly to the Shirvanshah tomb. Simply provide the driver with the coordinates (40.3662, 49.8328) or the address in Sabayil. The taxi fare may vary depending on the distance, but you should expect to pay approximately 25-40 AZN for the trip. This method is ideal if you're traveling with a group or have a lot of luggage.
