Fountains Square, also known as Parapet, is a tree-lined plaza in the heart of Baku, near the Old Town. Named for the numerous fountains that line its paths and public spaces, many of these water features were constructed during the Soviet era. The square’s central location makes it a natural stop for those exploring the Azerbaijani capital on foot. Visitors can enjoy the shaded walkways and the gentle sounds of flowing water, creating a serene atmosphere amidst the bustling city.
