Main bus station in Baku is located just 200 m downhill from “20 January” subway station. No timetable on display but if you know Russian it is simple: just ask any driver – they will direct you to your minibus. I took one going to Qebele (15000 manats) – they left me at the Lahic crossroad. Then I hitchhiked up the beautiful mountain valley.
Lahic lies about 2000 m above sea level. The 20-km gravel road up the valley is very picturesque with snowy peaks on the horizon. In the village you will find houses made of stone, coppersmith workshops, carpet makers and interesting museum in the former mosque. People are nice – they offer accommodation in the private homes for just 20 000 manats. Breakfast is included… For me it was one of the most interesting places in Azerbaijan…
