Visitors are greeted by a structure that feels both timeless and welcoming. Its design, echoing the classic Shirvan-Absheron school of architecture, features a striking central dome and an arched entrance that hints at the opulence of its oil magnate patrons. Unlike the bustling tourist centers, the Selim Mosque provides a peaceful atmosphere where local community life and spiritual heritage blend seamlessly.

The Stone Chronicle Museum (Daş Salnamə Muzeyi) is a free-entry museum on Baku's National Flag Square dedicated to Azerbaijan's sculptural stone heritage — from prehistoric petroglyphs to intricately carved medieval tombstones — displayed across two floors of a beautifully restored early-twentieth-century power station. Opened in 2015 by the Heydar Aliyev Foundation, it brings together over 48,000 artifacts spanning the full arc of stone carving traditions in the region, making it a compact yet surprisingly rich introduction to Azerbaijan's material history.
