Azerbaijan is one of the most surprising countries travelers discover in the Caucasus. Many people expect something similar to the Middle East, but the reality feels very different. In this video we look at some of the biggest culture shocks visitors experience when they first arrive in Azerbaijan. From a hillside that has been burning for years at Yanar Dag near Baku, to a daily tea culture that dominates social life. Travelers are often surprised to see wine bars and pubs across Baku even though the country is culturally Muslim. And when it comes to weddings, the scale can be enormous, with hundreds of guests, live music, and celebrations that feel more like festivals than ceremonies. These small cultural details reveal why Azerbaijan feels so unique to first time visitors. #Azerbaijan #Baku #AzerbaijanTravel #CultureShock #CaucasusTravel #TravelFacts #TravelCulture #YanarDag #AzerbaijanWeddings #TeaCulture
