Perched on the rugged coastline of Unknown Country, the Absheron Lighthouse stands as a timeless beacon for seafarers. Erected in the 19th century, this impressive maritime sentinel boasts an oak spiral staircase beneath its red and white stripes, guiding ships through the treacherous Caspian Sea waters. Legend holds that the light from its prisms could once be seen from the distant shores of Persia, sparking the imaginations of ancient sailors. Visitors often find themselves mesmerised by the panoramic views from the top, a scenic reward after the climb. A true fusion of function and beauty, it is a marvel of maritime engineering.
