Why Tbilisi?
Tbilisi is the most important city – the heart of small but great Georgia. And it’s not just a beautiful city! Tbilisi – This is a “warm” city in all respects. Do you know that even the ancient name of the city is Tiflis (until 1936) and is translated from Georgian as “warm spring”. It was from the legend of the found hot spring that the history of Tbilisi began.
Tbilisi is a multifaceted city: here narrow old cozy streets coexist with wide modern avenues, buildings in the neo-style of new Georgian architecture step on ancient monasteries and temples, and ancient souvenir shops and centuries-old wine shops with marani (wine cellars) are neighbors of ultra-modern cafes and restaurants and bars.
