00:05Nothing beats the fresh taste of fruit picked straight from the branch.

00:09It's like a personalized gift from nature right to you.

00:12That's why this weekend I'm here in Lankaren,

00:14which is often called Azerbaijan's fruit basket.

00:16I'm here to try some of the region's tasty local fruit

00:19and get up close and personal with its wild, untouched nature.

00:23And a little rain isn't going to stop me.

00:30Sandvished between the Cassian Sea and the lush Talish mountains,

00:36Lenkaren benefits from a unique subtropical microclimate.

00:40Conditions are perfect for growing an astounding variety of fruits and grains,

00:44which I get to taste at Citrus Valley Plantation,

00:47a family farm run by Raftera Shukurova.

01:00Juicy mandarins, tangy lemons, fragrant feijoa,

01:13the best of the region is concentrated here.

01:16And visitors can harvest them all.

01:18So I'm starting with the kiwi trees because those are the ripest right now.

01:23Sadly, I can't fit all these fresh fruits in my suitcase,

01:26but Raftera is going to show me how to make a unique souvenir I can take home.

01:39The process is simple but requires time and care.

01:44From peeling and cutting the fruit to stewing them over the fire.

01:48I'm not as good at this as you are.

01:56Proportions are easy to remember.

02:02It's equal parts fruit and sugar with a splash of water.

02:05But some insider tips can elevate your jam,

02:09like cooking it over a wood fire to give it some extra flavor.

02:12It's tradition to eat fruit preserves with Lenkaren black tea

02:15brewed in a beautiful samovar.

02:19Mmm.

02:20It's delicious.

02:21I now have a one-of-a-kind Lenkaren souvenir to take home with me.

02:36But I can't leave without exploring the region's famous forests.

02:40My next stop is going to be a wild one.

02:42The Lenkaren and Astara districts are home to ancient forests,

02:46including the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Hirkan National Park.

02:50Over generations, people have learned to coexist with this untamed nature.

02:54Founding villages that to this day remain accessible only by foot or off-road vehicle.

02:59I'm joining a guide for an overland trip to one of them, called Sim Village.

03:03I feel a bit like Indiana Jones in this truck.

03:06We're about to ford a river.

03:13Sim Village was located on the ancient Silk Road.

03:16Today's residents mainly work growing vegetables, raising cattle, beekeeping, and welcoming tourists.

03:36Every season in Sim brings its own unique beauty.

03:40It's enchanting even in the rain.

03:42The leaves on the trees glisten and the rivers roar.

03:44Some of the sites are tucked deep into the forest,

04:01while others, like Bali Gaya or Honey Rock, are visible from nearly everywhere.

04:05To access the sites, there are trails for all levels, from beginners to seasoned hikers.

04:14We chose the short hike to Sheer Hall Waterfall for the refreshing, misty air.

04:18The energy feels ancient here, with a simplicity that quiets the mind.

04:28I'm ending my trip at one of the guest houses in town,

04:30where I've been offered more freshly brewed tea and marmalade,

04:34that Azerbaijani hospitality.

04:36I'm once again enjoying local fruit preserves underneath this beautiful walnut tree,

04:44with a gorgeous view of ancient forests all around me.

04:48The gifts of nature are abundant here, and I'm so lucky to get to enjoy them.

04:52Thank you.
