The Mardakan's Park The Absheron Peninsula besides Yanar Dag, Atashgyah has other interesting places that will progress your knowledge about Azerbaijan and its history. Such a place is the Botanical Garden Mardakan. In that corner of paradise is built in 1890, oil magnat's Muktuza Muchtarowa villa, who was the founder and former owner of the same amenities. The Russian poet Sergei Yesenin lived and worked in this place in the 1924 to 1925 years. Another attraction of the park are rhododendrons especially their colorful flowers.
The garden can be reached by minibus route from Baku outlet at the airport and on the Mardakan. After going refurbishment comfortable and within half an hour you can reach the mardakan oasis, located next to the school police.Admission to the garden is payable. At the entrance spreading notes Mexican agave, near the growing eucalyptus and oak are looking for Iberian.
Especially in April and May, we can admire the luscious shades of pink rhododendrons. Gathered there is a large collection of evergreen trees: slender cypresses, pines, laurels and olive beauty narrow alleys of the park. It also found refuge palm trees and cacti. Emanating green eyes, the air filled with the scent of roses, chamomile and rosemary and reigning silence away from the hustle and bustle of the car, giving respite and rest.There is also a "Azerbaijani" mini zoo, bear cage trapping, raccoon dog, flamingos, swans, eagles and other majestic creatures Caucasus. Truly pathetic sight.
Walking towards the sea lanes come to a rectangular villa with internal atrium and a beautiful terrace. It is not surprising that in these circumstances, nature has worked creatively Sergei Yesenin. There supposedly wrote "Persian motifs" - a collection of love poems.
Yesenin Museum operates from 3 October 1975. One can find a bust of the writer (one of the walnut tree, the other of white marble), images of Azerbaijani painters meeting Yesenin and photographic materials in the life of the poet.
The following verse of the poet Сергей Есенин «Прощай, Баку! ... »
Прощай, Баку! Тебя я не увижу.
Теперь в душе печаль, теперь в душе испуг.
И сердце под рукой теперь больней и ближе,
И чувствую сильней простое слово: друг.
Прощай, Баку! Синь тюркская, прощай!
Хладеет кровь, ослабевают силы.
Но донесу, как счастье, до могилы
И волны Каспия, и балаханский май.
Прощай, Баку! Прощай, как песнь простая!
В последний раз я друга обниму ...
Чтоб голова его, как роза золотая,
Кивала нежно мне в сиреневом дыму.
Май 1925

The Bibi Heybat Mosque
The Bibi Heybat mosque lies
on the edge of the bay of the same name, near the road leading from Baku to the
south of Azerbaijan. Depending
on your point of view, we can enjoy a picturesque location on the background of
the Caspian Sea, the old oil fields, suburbs and hills Baku Batamdar the TV
tower.
The mosque was built in honor of the seventh sister of Imam Ali - Okumy Khanim, who led the life of the holy woman. She helped the poor, miserable support, share its wealth. After the death of Okumy, the sea was placed a small crypt engraved with her name. With time, the holy places pilgrims started coming.
In the years 1264 - 1266 out of pir-u, a small mosque Bibi Heybat with one chamber and two 20 meter high minarets. The name is Bibi's aunt, and Heybat - committed to serving. Located near the village was named Sheikhovo (the sheikh), and later to the time of this present time is called Shikhovo.
The first time I saw a mosque in 2006. Even then, permanent restoration work. Mosque has been reconstructed since 1998, and in 2008 unveiled by the One.
Unfortunately, during the reconstruction of the exit road (extension) adjacent to the mosque, destroyed lying on the slope section of the cemetery. Some of the tombs located opposite the mosque. was demolished and some of them during the work was bulldozers were open. Sticking out of them the remains of human bones and the carpets in which they are wrapped.
It was not the first cemetery, which was destroyed and devastated in Baku. For many of them now stand new buildings and settlements. I wonder whether this affects Stalin and later Soviet policy of destruction, which also has a mosque Bibi Heybat in 1934 and lack of respect for ancestors.
Unfortunately, the devastation of Baku policy continues today. Are destroyed more monuments of Baku which is the rich history and heritage http://www.facebook.com/bakunian.girl
