Karavan Rent A Car in Baku Reports on the Tea Festival on Baku Boulevard: a Six-Metre Armudu Glass, Karabakh Herbs and Chinese and Uzbek Traditions
Karavan Rent A Car in Baku’s Travelers Club has published a report on the Tea Festival held from 12 to 18 October 2026 in the Seaside National Park on Baku Boulevard. The event was organised by the Seaside Boulevard Administration, and entry was free.
What visitors saw:
- a six-metre replica of the armudu glass, made by hand by the Administration’s staff;
- teas from leading Azerbaijani producers;
- herbal blends brought from Karabakh and East Zangezur;
- regional sweets, samovars and traditional tea-table ware;
- the tea traditions of Uzbekistan and China.
The piece also covers:
- what UNESCO says about the tea culture of Azerbaijan and Türkiye, inscribed on its intangible heritage list in 2022;
- which districts in the south of the country grow tea;
- the tea festival Baku hosted in 2023, and where to follow the news if the boulevard event returns.
No next edition had been announced at the time of publication. For anyone who missed it, the authors suggest heading south to where the tea is grown. Karavan Rent A Car in Baku offers cars for trips like this for as short as a day, brought round the clock wherever you are staying or landing, with the keys and paperwork handled by a delivery service manager.
