Little Venice

You don’t have to hop on a plane to Italy to experience the charm of gondolas gliding through peaceful canals — just head over to Little Venice, one of Baku’s most delightful and unexpected gems.

Tucked away along the scenic Baku Boulevard, right by the Caspian Sea and near the Flame Towers, Little Venice is a picture-perfect mini water town that adds a whimsical European flair to the heart of Azerbaijan’s capital.

🛶 What to Expect
Little Venice is exactly what it sounds like — a network of man-made canals weaving between charming bridges, stone walkways, and stylish little buildings. It’s all designed to give you a romantic, tranquil escape from the city’s buzz.

The highlight? Gondola rides. Yep — you can hop aboard a small boat and float peacefully along the canals while soaking in the views and snapping dreamy photos. Whether you’re with your partner, family, or just wandering solo, it’s a relaxing and Instagram-worthy experience.

Surrounding the canals are cozy cafés and restaurants, so after your boat ride, you can grab a bite, sip some Azerbaijani tea, or enjoy a sunset meal by the water. It’s especially magical in the evening when the lights reflect off the canals.
