You can visit the local history museum and have a look at the Karabakh war memorial, located between of the parade ground and the modest city hall.
Anyway, better than any human creation is the superb landscape around the town, with the Talysh mountains in the horizon. Lerik is also a good starting point for hiking.
You can reach Lerik easily from Lankaran using the A323 road. It is a very scenic route along the Lankaran river and the Chirkan Nature Reserve. Buses run regularly to Lankaran and Baku. (220 km south of Baku).
