Located in the north-east of Azerbaijan, Guba is a great place to experience the Caucasus Mountains. Timeless mountain villages are populated by diverse peoples and offer great hiking and ecotourism opportunities. In the city itself you can discover some intriguing culinary secrets while in the surrounding villages local women weave some of the finest carpets in the Caucasus.
Women in Guba have been weaving carpets since time immemorial and today some ancient rugs from the region are kept in museums as far afield as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
INTERESTING FACT #2Unlike elsewhere, Guba’s traditional pakhlava sweets are actually usually cooked by men.
