Baku (Azerbaijan) - Wink Travel Guide
Baku, also known as Baky or Bakı, is the largest city in the Caucasus and the capital of Azerbaijan. Baku is on the coast of the Caspian Sea on the southern tip of the Absheron Peninsula.
There are three major divisions in Baku: the Old Town, the Soviet-built city, and the newest part of the city. The population as of January 2012 was 2,122,300.
The city of Baku is on the hot and dusty Absheron peninsula. The center of Baku is a patch of green in a largely brown area because of the many liters of water that is piped to the city every day.
