This country has the friendliest people
In April 2024, I travelled to Ganja, Azerbaijan's third largest city and hidden gem in the Caucasus, where I was arrested by the friendliest police ever, banned from a local school and met the happiest people on the way.
Welcome to GANJA, AZERBAIJAN (Gəncə, Azərbaycan) - one of my favourite cities in Azerbaijan. This place is full of life, culture, interesting architecture, and vintage cars. It makes for an excellent unusual holiday destination. I was there for two days to document street life and see what kind of people live there.
Enjoy this travel vlog about Ganja in the Caucasus region!

I'm very glad that you decided to visit other cities of Azerbaijan. Ganja is one of the oldest cities in Azerbaijan, but sadly, Ganja and other cities don't get as much investment as Baku.

Thank you for watching my videos 😁
Biz fransızları sevmərik. 😁 Ancaq evimizə düşmən də qonaq gəlsə, onu qonaq kimi qarşılayar, qonaq edər, sonra evinə yollayarıq. 😉
sure try being an armenian and see how friendly
