Balakan
Balaken district – the most northwestern district in Azerbaijan. If you arrive from Georgia via Lagodekhi, then sleepy Balakan will be the first Azeri town you'll see.
The town's commercial centre is around the bazaar. However, the town's only sight, a fine 19th-century mosque, is 1km further west, two blocks south of the prominent Heydar Bagi gardens.
The imam generally allows visitors to climb the mosque's unique brick minaret for a fine view over the town.
Apart from that the town with population of around 10,000 has no major sightseeings and could serve just an overnight stopover on you way to or from Gerogia.
