Already in the 10th century, chroniclers described Gabala as a land renowned not only for its walnuts, hazelnuts, and chestnuts, but also for its abundance of apples, quinces, pears, cherries, and other fruits. Archaeological discoveries from the 8th to 13th centuries further reveal that the people of the region had long mastered the art of growing and preserving a rich variety of fruits.
Today, Gabala continues to charm food lovers with its culinary specialties. Guests are treated to the celebrated walnut-filled ‘uchgulag’ pakhlava, the delicate Khamzali halva, the unique dulghun, and a host of chestnut-based dishes. Local restaurants serve walnut dolma, sorrel plov, dosheme plov, and many more unforgettable delicacies.
The cuisine of Gabala is both a journey through history and a feast of flavours, turning every meal into a true gastronomic adventure.
