Targovi, one of the most vibrant and popular areas of the city, is the center of Baku's social life with its shops, boutique stores, cafes, and restaurants. Thanks to its elegant structures reflecting 19th-century European architecture and lively atmosphere, it is an ideal spot for both shopping and pleasant walks. We have the opportunity to closely experience Baku's modern face amidst street performers and brightly lit shop windows.
