1Candy Cane Mountain
The Candy Cane Mountains, spanning the Khizi and Siyazan districts, are a surreal natural wonder named for their striking red-and-white striped hills. These vibrant, swirling patterns were formed over millions of years as groundwater altered the oxidation state of iron compounds within the Cretaceous-era shale rock layers. Visitors can admire these unique sedimentary badlands directly from the roadside or explore on foot to spot tiny ancient fossils embedded in the ground, making it a highly photogenic and popular stop on any northern route from Baku.
