| Day 1 |
Tbilisi, the captivating capital of Georgia, is a city where ancient history meets vibrant modernity. Nestled on the banks of the Kura River and flanked by dramatic hills, Tbilisi offers an eclectic blend of architectural styles, from its medieval churches to its modern structures. Wander through the old town, or Altstadt, and marvel at the intricate facades of historic churches like the Sioni Cathedral and the Anchiskhati Basilica. For a panoramic view of the city, take a ride on the Tbilisi Funicular, which leads to the Narikala Fortress, a site that has stood since the 4th century. The city’s diverse culinary scene is a testament to its rich cultural tapestry. Explore Rustaveli Avenue, the bustling heart of Tbilisi, where you can find a range of dining options from traditional Georgian cuisine to contemporary eateries. Don’t miss tasting traditional dishes like khachapuri (cheese-filled bread) and khinkali (dumplings). For a true taste of Georgian hospitality, visit the Dezerter Bazaar, a vibrant market where locals shop for fresh produce, spices, and artisanal products. Tbilisi’s charm extends beyond its architecture and food. The city’s Sulfur Baths in the Abanotubani district are a must-visit for relaxation and a glimpse into local tradition. These historic baths, built over natural sulfur springs, offer a unique experience with their stunning, domed architecture and therapeutic waters. Fun Fact: Tbilisi is known for its Tbilisoba Festival, an annual celebration that showcases the city’s cultural heritage with music, dance, and traditional foods. Held in October, the festival turns the streets of Tbilisi into a lively carnival, offering visitors a deep dive into Georgian culture and traditions. |
