In transition to democracy, friendly people, Stalin legacy
Kind people hosted me, protected me, and guided me around unique landmarks
Transformation and liberalization, immense Medina mosque, huge Riyadh
Mix of Christianity and Islam, Roman ruins and serenity of Qadisha Valley
A perfect combination of traditions, culture and modernization
Transformation of Baku, swimming in the Caspian Sea, poor countryside
From desert to the future, Burj Khalifa to Burj el Arab, World Expo 2020
The first Christian country, impact of the genocide, disputed Nagorno-Karabakh
Rapid expansion, a heritage of falconry, discovering Doha on scooters
Surreal transformation, absence of local residents, new developments
