Sheki
A Silk Road town of stained glass and sweet halva
A UNESCO-listed historic centre in the southern Caucasus foothills, famous for the Khan's Palace, nail-free shebeke windows, silk workshops and its own style of halva.
Sheki is the town most travellers remember longest. Its historic centre earned UNESCO status in 2019, built around the Khan's Palace, whose facade and interiors are filled with shebeke — coloured glass mosaics assembled from thousands of hand-cut wooden pieces without a single nail or drop of glue. Two restored caravanserais still stand on the old Silk Road route, one of them operating as a hotel. Workshops around the bazaar continue silk weaving, copper work and the layered Sheki halva sold warm by the slice. Above the town, the village of Kish holds a church dating to the Caucasian Albanian era. Cool, green and walkable.
