My first postcard from Azerbaijan is from Postcrossing meetup held in Baku, capital of Azerbaijan, in December. On postcard you can see view of Baku, and in the center is Flame Towers, the tallest skyscraper in Baku, Azerbaijan with a height of 190 m. The buildings consist of apartments, a hotel and office blocks. The estimated cost of Flame Towers is around US$350 million. Construction began in 2007, with completion in 2012. The Flame Towers consist of three buildings; south, east and west. The facades of the three Flame Towers are turned into gigantic display screens with the use of more than 10,000 high-power LED luminaires.
