Northwest of Saki is Zaqatala, which has the ruins of an old fortress. Zakatala is mainly of historic interest -- the fortress was used after the 1905 Revolution as a prison for the mutinous crew of the battleship Potemkin. 235 mi/380 km northwest of Baku. http://www.usembassybaku.org/post/city.htm
