İsmayıllı (also Ismailli, Ismayilli, or Ismayilly) is a historic town in the Sheki Region of Azerbaijan
İsmayıllı is a convenient travel hub to nearby destinations, especially in the Caucasus Mountains, including Lahich.
Buses from Baku to Ismailli depart from the large and confusing Baku International Bus Terminal. On the third floor of the bus terminal, tickets to Ismailli are sold at ticket window 15. If tickets are sold out for the regular bus to Ismailli, marshrutkas (minivans) outside the ticket hall periodically depart for the 2½ hr ride when all seats are full. These will drop you off at the Central Bazar (Mərkəzi bazar) in the middle of İsmayıllı, where a cluster of taxis will be waiting for you.
A taxi to most destinations in town should not cost more than 2 to 3 manat by taxi. A horde of taxi drivers will greet you when you depart your bus at the Central Bazar. However, many destinations are walkable and there are also many local marshrutkas to nearby destinations available, like Lahich.
The Central Bazar area is packed with phone shops, restaurants, supermarkets and every other assortment of stores that you'll find in a mid-sized Azerbaijani town.
There are a number of hole-in-the-wall restaurants around the Central Bazar (Mərkəzi bazar) with the typical selection of kebabs, bread and salads that will cost just a few manat for a meal.
Buses depart from the Ismailli bus station to the following destinations (in order of closeness):
