Javad Khan Street
Cavad xan küçəsi
A pedestrian street in the old town, where 19th-century brick buildings have been converted into cafés, teahouses and shops. It's the best neighborhood in Ganja for a stroll.
Javad Khan Street is a pedestrian street in central Ganja. It is named after Javad Khan, the last khan of Ganja, who died fighting the Russian army. The street runs north from Shah Abbas Square. Lining it are renovated red-brick buildings from the 19th to early 20th century, with teahouses, cafés, dessert shops and souvenir stores on the ground floors. In the evenings, local families come out for a stroll, and the mood is relaxed. Historic buildings along the way include Javad Khan's office. You can walk from Shah Abbas Mosque all the way to Nizami Square, a distance of about 1 km. Come in the evening and enjoy a pot of black tea with jam in a teahouse.
