Bio Garden<br />
This is a peaceful oasis in the village of<br />
Oryet, a few kilometres from the city of<br />
Sheki, where a huge range of organic fruits,<br />
nuts and flowering plants from around the<br />
world are grown in picturesque orchards<br />
with views of the Caucasus Mountains. The<br />
eight-hectare territory is packed with over<br />
4,000 trees. Visitors can enjoy guided tours<br />
of the orchards, learn about local cultivation<br />
methods and pick fruits to purchase. You can<br />
also browse trout, chicken and honey farms<br />
and relax by a peaceful lake with superb<br />
views of the distant mountains. On top of<br />
that, there is a restaurant serving meals<br />
made from seasonal local ingredients.<br />

Chabiant<br />
winery<br />
Situated amid gorgeous<br />
countryside in the Ismayilli<br />
region, Chabiant is a great<br />
place to discover local<br />
winemaking as it has a<br />
particularly strong focus on<br />
growing local grape varieties.<br />
It is one of the top modern<br />
wineries in the country,<br />
producing an excellent<br />
range of wines from international<br />
and (especially)<br />
local grapes. Tours are<br />
available including visits to<br />
the vast cellar, production<br />
facilities and vineyards.<br />
In September, you can<br />
also take part in the grape<br />
harvest and related festivities.<br />
On warm evenings,<br />
excellent food and wine<br />
is served at the poolside<br />
restaurant. And throughout<br />
the year you can enjoy<br />
fabulous views of the<br />
vineyards rolling over the<br />
hills towards the Greater<br />
Caucasus Mountains.<br />
