As your travel agent, I recommend a mix of practical guides and inspiring reading for your trip to Baku and Azerbaijan. For guidebooks, look for: “Lonely Planet Georgia, Armenia & Azerbaijan” (it has a solid section on Baku and the Absheron Peninsula), “Bradt Travel Guide: Azerbaijan” (very detailed, excellent for culture and history), and “DK Eyewitness Top 10 Istanbul & The Caucasus” or similar visual guides that include Baku for easy, picture‑based planning. For deeper context, consider “Azerbaijan: A Quest for Identity” by Tadeusz Swietochowski (modern history and background), and “Ali and Nino” by Kurban Said, a classic novel set in early 20th‑century Baku that really brings the city’s atmosphere to life. You might also browse recent travel blogs or YouTube channels focused on “Baku travel guide” and “things to do in Baku” for up‑to‑date restaurant tips, local café culture, and practical advice on prices and customs before you go.
