Chinardining

CHiNAR has been a famous Baku landmark and meeting place for decades. Today CHiNAR offers a range of dining and entertainment experiences that are amongst the finest in the world, created by the international restaurant specialists Blue Sky Hospitality from London. Originally a tea house under a cluster of chinar trees (sycamore or plane tree), CHiNAR has now been reborn as a magnificent building of contemporary architecture. The original CHiNAR trees have been preserved on an outdoor terrace enhanced by bamboo screens and a tranquil water feature. CHiNAR is located near another famous Baku landmark: the statue of the mythical Azeri hero Bahram Gur slaying a formidable dragon and Funicular-which opens beauty of Baku city while going uptown. This legend has been reinterpreted in the design of a mezzanine late night bar with DJ, sushi bar and art videos, the Dragon Lounge.
