About The Flame towers

The Flame Towers is a group of three skyscrapers in Baku, with both residential and commercial buildings, who together look like the shivering flames of a fire. It is done to honor the long history of fire-worshippers who follow their prophet Zoroaster. The tallest of the three is almost six hundred feet high and can be seen across the sea from the ferry. As they are placed on a hill, the all-glass facade of the towers can be seen from a number of places besides the city monuments. There are about ten thousand LED panels across the building walls which light up at night and color up the night skyline. You can go in the towers, but to take a snap of the whole trip, you better visit the nearby raised platforms in the viewpoints.
