The Maiden Tower, also known as Qiz Qalası or Kis-Kali in Azerbaijani, is a historic landmark located in Baku, Azerbaijan. This iconic tower dates back to the 12th century and was built by the architect Masud ibn Davud, who is believed to be the father of the architect of Mardakan Round Tower. The foundation of the Maiden Tower is thought to be a Sasanid era Zoroastrian site, making it a significant historical and cultural symbol for the region. The tower stands majestically on a rocky islet in the Caspian Sea, overlooking the bustling harbor of Baku. Its unique cylindrical shape and intricate design have captured the imagination of visitors for centuries.
