Built in the 12th century, these fortified gates stand approximately 8 meters tall and 20 meters wide, serving as a vital part of the city's ancient defense system. The Double Gates have long been a symbol of Baku's rich cultural heritage, connecting the old walled city with the modern urban landscape.
