Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

It is located about 20 km from Baku. It was originally built in 17th-18th century by Zoroastrians from Persia. This place was full of natural gas due to which there used be permanent fire lit up. The Zoroastrian priests used to worship here. After Persia came under Islam, this temple was destroyed. Afterwards when Indians who worship fire, came here during their trading travel on Grand Silk Route, built temples with Hindu Deities. One can see many Indian Deities and Sanskrit scriptures including a small statue of Lord Natraj.
Over the time when natural gas got over at this place, the government of Azerbaijan is supplying gas through pipeline to keep fore burning. At present it is maintained very well by the government and it has become a tourist place. in 2007 it was declared as Historical Architectural Reserve by government.

It is an interesting place with a lot more to see than I expected. Around the temple itself are several smaller rooms with displays explaining Zoroastrianism and other religious aspects of this place and its history. Souvenir shopping mall just outside.

It was a bit smaller than I tought, but still worth the visit. You get some insight into Zoroastrianism and many flames were lit while we visited.

The Fire Temple was used as a Hindu, Sikh, and Zoroastrian place of worship during the 17th - 18th century. Today it is a very popular tourist attraction and I can clearly see why. It is a serene and historical site. When you enter you can buy your ticket to enter as soon as you get into the gate at the ticket office. I went alone and did my research before visiting so I didnt need a tour guide. You leave the fire temple and you move around to other buildings surrounding it you can see some of the mannequin-like figures sitting in positions as in prehistoricl times. In each room there are different themes and objects depicting a once vibrant site. It is a definite must see when visiting Baku.

The Ateshgah Temple, situated in Azerbaijan, stands as a testament to centuries of worship and cultural exchange.
Constructed during the late 16th and early 17th centuries, the Atashgah Temple was a labor of devotion by fire-worshippers from diverse countries, including India. Throughout its existence, it remained an active centre of worship, thriving until the 19th century. Inscriptions discovered in both Iran and India validate its significance as a sacred site for Hindus, Sikhs, and Zoroastrians.
Within one of the courtyards, visitors encounter a small Ganesha idol emitting continuous chants-an enchanting sight that adds to the temple's allure. The temple complex houses an altar perpetually fuelled by natural gas, where fire burns in reverence.
Ateshgah's design resembles that of a compact fortress, with enclosed stone-fenced courtyards containing cells. Fire worshippers once embraced an ascetic lifestyle within these ancient walls, seeking spiritual solace.
The Ateshgah's Temple is approximately 30 kilometres (18.6 miles) northeast of Baku.
Ticket Prices: Adults: 10 AZN Children (ages 6-18): 5 AZN
This remarkable temple, steeped in history, should not be missed by anyone exploring Azerbaijan.

Fire Temple in Surakhani, 30 km from the center of Baku.
The temple arose in the 17th–18th centuries on the site of “eternal” unquenchable fires - burning outlets of natural gas. The temple is called “Ateshgah”, which means “Place of Fire”.
In the center of the courtyard stands a quadrangular altar, a place of pilgrimage for fire worshipers: Zoroastrians, Hindus and Sikhs, many of whom considered this fiery land holy and came here on their last journey.

Fire mountain was disappointing but Fire temple was a good thing to do. I would recommend paying for a guide so you can fully understand the various displays. It was pretty awesome to see this structure from the B.C. period Parton the Silk Road.

This place is serene. You get a feel good austerity when at this place.
There are multiple tours to this place and is almost 30 mins from the city. if you have some time in leisure I suggest you come here.
The history of the temple goes back ages and you have a museum setup in different rooms saying different stories.

Interesting place to visit not far from Baku. Fun, well explained and very clean. The temple as well as the caravanserai allow us to better understand the history of the country and the origin of the city of fire and gas extraction. Plus it's pretty.

Interesting place near Baku. An unusually beautiful architectural complex. An interesting excursion; we walked around the cells of the temple with curiosity for about an hour.

How much time should we consider to spend at the fire temple excluding the time to get there and back, thank you

Hello want to know the rates and quotes for day trips from Baku (Feb end) with 2 adults and 1 kid (2yrs) in private car.

Hello, does anybody know what’s its closing time/ last entry time? Thank you
Skrevet 7. juli 2019
It’s 9 am to 6 pm. It takes an hour to see the place. Though not very big, you will end up spending an hour. Better to book a cab for one day and go on your own rather than joining a group tour.
Skrevet 7. juli 2019
Скажите пожалуйста,вход платный или как? В какие дни и часы можно посетить это место?
Skrevet 6. juli 2015
Вход платный, как в любой музей. Очень рекомендую взять экскурсовода. Все мероприятие займет минут 45. Лучше всего посетить это место по дороге в аэропорт или из него.
