On 20 October, a delegation from the British Embassy in Azerbaijan visited Baku White City. The delegation included Flora Blower, Regional Director for Exports and Investment in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, and Alexander Tyrrell, Country Director for Azerbaijan at the UK Department for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade.
During the visit, the guests learned about the environmental regeneration of the former industrial site and its transformation into a modern urban district. They were also introduced to the Baku White City concept, its master plan and its main development priorities.
The delegation then toured Baku White City, visiting completed projects and public spaces. The guests were particularly impressed by the scale of the transformation of the historic Black City into a district with contemporary architecture, green spaces and modern infrastructure.
