Buzovna lies on the coast of the Caspian Sea and is a traditional weekend retreat for the residents of Baku. The rocky coastline and fine sandy beaches of the settlement differ from other parts of the region, providing a distinct bathing environment. Life here is most active during the summer months when the sea water temperature reaches 25 to 26 degrees Celsius. Historical landmarks include the Ali Ayagi shrine, an important pilgrimage site for locals, as well as the ruins of 19th-century bathhouses. These remnants highlight the town's historical significance along ancient caravan routes. The old stone houses and narrow streets encourage visitors to take long walks through the settlement. In terms of gastronomy, Buzovna focuses heavily on fresh seafood. The restaurants along the coast prepare locally caught fish using traditional Azerbaijani spices. The settlement is easily accessible from Baku by suburban trains or buses, with the journey taking approximately 40 minutes from the capital.
