The Aliyev Cultural Center, built in May 2012, is a classic work by the late pioneer architect Zaha Hadid. It is a landmark in Baku city and even country. The Cultural Center was pre-opened on May 10, 2012 under the auspices of the current President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev. The building is also named after the current President. The Aliyev Cultural Center is both a modern translation of Islamic architectural temperament and a rebellion against rigid Soviet-era architecture. Like a magic wand-wielding wizard, Zaha blends Islamic culture, natural forms and pioneering art, creating a huge array of folds and open spaces that connect with the urban environment. The high completion of Aliyev Cultural Center also makes Zaha her theoretic works. The Azerbaijani government allocated $6 billion a year to build public buildings, and after Zaha won the international competition, the abundant funds gave architects a high degree of creative freedom, so that the design and construction of the cultural center is less affected by external factors. Strong economic support ensures the project’s difficult, high-quality and high completion, and allows us to see the orderly facade of the Aliyev Cultural Center today, the transparent and clean curtain wall, and the exquisite and stable structure. Standing on the square and looking at the Aliyev Cultural Center, it seems that a gray-white concrete plane is peeled off the ground and expanded into two peaks, with the surface expanding, splitting, flowing and rising in the air. In the clear topology of the site, the building itself is an explosive node, with its climax at the 80 m roof top. Zaha's first work in China was the Guangzhou Grand Theatre , Beijing Galaxy SOHO complex, Nanjing Youth Olympic Center, Hong Kong Polytechnic University Building and Beijing Daxing International Airport.

Do you think it's similar to Daxing Airport? It's another work designed by Zaha Hadid's architectural firm, a new landmark in Baku. The center includes a museum, library and conference center. As with other Hadid's works, the center of the building is still curved. The beautiful and sexy curves unfold from the ground to form an organic and dynamic shape. This continuous curved skin contains a variety of functions, providing appropriate privacy and uniqueness of each space.
As the most awesome building in Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, this art center is definitely the pride of Azerbaijanis. As a former Soviet republic, the buildings and vehicles here can see the shadow of the Soviet Union everywhere. Just here, the standout. Pride
The costume is very distinctive, you should see it at a glance, the memory is a bit deep
Heydar Aliyev Cultural Center is a very unique and unique building named after the former President. The collection and exhibits include a section on the life stories of the former President and the use of vehicles, traditional Azerbaijani culture, modern art, puppets and miniature models of buildings in Baku. The exhibition area is not small, the security check level is relatively high, the tickets are not cheap, but the air conditioning is still very worthwhile to visit. Besides, because of the strange shape of the building, the design of the tour route is not very reasonable. In the centre of the exhibition hall, there is also a cafe with simple meals. Souvenir shops can enter without tickets. In addition, the bathroom in the cultural center is the cleanest I have ever met in Azerbaijani.
Baku has a landmark, Heidal Aliyev Cultural Center, a feeling of déjà vu, and the landmark building Galaxy SOHO in Beijing is the same designer. She is an Iraqi-born British female architect Zaha • Hadid, but unfortunately she has died in 2016. The cultural center, built in 2012, has become her legacy. It is necessary to punch in and visit Azerbaijan on the first day of your visit. It exudes a Zaha romance, showing off her bold avant-garde design ideas, and what I see is a fanciful white streamlined building high up. I miss the Zaha who has won the London Design Museum's "Design Award of the Year" and is known as the "Master of Deconstructionism", and entered the layers of rolling, curved and changing soft lines, white-based interior, and it really went through the clouds and the water, and it felt like a sky and a sky. Dun germinated to go to Guangzhou Opera House to see another masterpiece in China. Here, feel the history, customs, culture and art of Azerbaijan, and do not want to leave for a long time.
