Baku is called "windy city" mainly because there are many beautiful scenery here, such as ancient city, Maiden Tower, Caspian Sea and strong winds, and Azerbaijanis are also very hospitable.
The infrastructure in Baku is well maintained, and tourists can go to mud volcanoes in the suburbs. This is a modern city full of bars and nightlife, and Baku is also considered as one of the most attractive cities in Asia.
Due to the differences in age and education level. Most older locals can't speak English. When a foreigner tries to ask some middle-aged or even elderly Azerbaijani citizens for help, they can't understand English.
But they are friendly, smiling at tourists and speaking Azerbaijani that tourists can't understand. Tourism is one of the local economic pillars, and local people usually answer questions patiently for their own income.
Sometimes, tourists can't find the exit at the subway station, and they can't get useful feedback when they ask three people for help. Some young people will take the initiative to ask tourists if they need help. Even if you go in the opposite direction, they will take you to the exit in no hurry.
So generally speaking, if you need help when traveling in Baku, it is a good way to ask young people for help. They may have good English skills and can give you the feedback you want.
Culturally, Baku is a city in the Middle East, and the center of Baku has a mixed atmosphere of modernity and history. Hundreds of years ago, many skyscrapers were built next to buildings. Visitors can find mosques and Middle Eastern-style buildings, such as the ancient city of Baku. In addition, you can also taste local Middle Eastern cuisine, and the quality of restaurants, shops and entertainment centers in Baku is very high.
In terms of public security, Baku's streets are very clean and rarely encounter robbery, theft, fraud or other negative events, so it is a safe place. The police in Azerbaijan usually only enforce the law on local people. Usually, they don't catch foreigners kissing in the street, because the local police lack foreign language skills and foreign citizens have the support of their embassies to oppose discrimination and harassment.
Economically, Baku is very rich and the commodity prices are reasonable. It is one of the richest cities in the Caucasus because it is rich in oil. This is a very modern place. People are very open and tolerant of other religions. Christians and Jews can coexist peacefully.
However, Azerbaijan has strong traditional ideas, especially about marriage. Foreigners who want to pursue Azerbaijani girls must first flirt with her. During this time, the girls must talk to her family and introduce you. Azerbaijani girls and foreign men must get the consent of the girl's father to get married.
Then, the foreign man's family must visit the girl's parents again. After the two families met, they decided on the final date of the engagement party. In a word, it seems difficult for foreign men to find Azerbaijani girls who can marry them.
