Impressive tour
I didn't expect to like this as much as I did. This area it is most important place to visit for Zoroastrians and Indians. History are totally connected with them. This site is restorated very well, rooms and all. Then we visited to Fire Mountain with my tour guide Orkan. On the way to the mountain, I saw a lot of gates. People love it a lot. It was extraordinary part of my trip. Fire mountain it is amazing burning mountains, I don't know is there such thing all over the world. Worth to visit. One of the best experience in Azerbaijan. lornskie d November 17, 2019

Another beautiful tour
The history of the place is fascinating. We are history lovers and I want to say “Thank you to Fuad to organize this trip with very friendly and informative guide Nur”. So temple is like a museum, very good to tell the history of the fire worshippers. After temple, we visited to Yanardagh. This is unbelievable. It burns for ages. Mysterious place!

Interesting tour by guide Emin
We learned lot history from our guide Emin. Atashgah name is derived from Atash and gah words, which means fire and place. On there you can see the nice presentation about the building history and time period of changing by centuries from first worshippers until nowadays. Different rooms depict different aspects of life at the temple. Then we went to fire mountain to see the real fire. It has new building and museum as well. Worth to visit both destination.

Superb!
We took Absheron Peninsula tour with this agency. Guide and driver were very kind, helpful to us. We loved the architecture of the Atashgah temple. Zoroastrians site and Indians merchants history. We learned a lot. Emin said us all history of it. Oil pumps, building period and all cells of building. Had a lot of laughs on our way to Fire mountain. :) :) :) Fire mountain was very unique place for us. Many people stand there to warm up from natural flames) Lovely tour!
