The Host city for this FSC 148-edition is Baku, Azerbaijan, the capital and largest city of Azerbaijan, as well as the largest city on the Caspian Sea and of the Caucasus region. Baku is located 28 metres below sea level, which makes it the lowest lying national capital in the world and also the largest city in the world located below sea level. The city is situated by the Bay of Baku.
At the beginning of 2009, Baku's urban population was estimated at just over two million people. Officially, about 25% of all inhabitants of the country live in Baku's metropolitan area. Baku is the sole metropolis in Azerbaijan and is famous for its urban nightlife ranked high on world lists. The city is furthermore the scientific, cultural, and financial/industrial centre of the Azerbaijani nation.
Above all, Baku’s trio of skyscrapers - the Flame Towers - are the most recognisable sight on the city’s skyline. At night, their glass facades light up in colours of fire, an effect created by 10.000 coloured LED bulbs. Perched majestically above the Bay of Baku 2 towers are occupied by offices and apartments, while the 3rd - Fairmont Baku - is open to non-guests, who can enjoy a drink there.
