This series highlights travel photography and stories and travel tips about destinations around the world. This month, travel to Azerbaijan, located between Russia, Iran and Turkey. In addition to its variegated and often beautiful terrain, Azerbaijan offers a blend of traditions and modern development. The people of its remoter areas retain many distinctive folk traditions, but the lives of its inhabitants have been much influenced by accelerating modernization, characterized by industrialization, the development of power resources, and the growth of the cities, in which more than half the people now live. Fine horses and caviar continue as some of the more distinctive traditional exports of the republic Register directly on Zoom HERE RECORDING NOTE: This program will be recorded.
