Getting There
Located right in the city center, the theatre is easy to access by public transportation or personal car, but it is much better to visit as you walk around downtown Baku.
What to Expect
The theatre’s architecture and interior design is a blend of baroque, rococo and Moorish elements, making it a go-to place for the admirers of architecture. Today, you can enjoy many performances by local and international groups of artists, including the locals’ favorite “Leyli and Majnun”, “Koroghlu” and others.
History
The theatre was built at the request of oil magnate Daniel Mailov and his brother and funded by prominent oil millionaire and philanthropist Haji Zeynalabdin Taghiyev. The theatre opened its doors in 1911 and operates up to this day.
