Georgia's Beauties: Borjomi, Mtskheta, and Uplistsikhe

What to Expect

The Cradle of Georgian Christianity
We will explore the ancient city of Mtskheta, the first capital of Georgia. It was here in the 4th century that Christianity was declared the state religion of Georgia. You will visit the Jvari Monastery, learn about its creation, and hear about Saint Nino and King Mirian. The stunning nature, the confluence of the Kura and Aragvi rivers, the centuries-old history, and the restored temples will convince you that this place rightfully belongs on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Walls Remember
If Mtskheta is the first capital, then Uplistsikhe cave city is one of the first cities in Georgia, built 2 thousand years ago. I will tell you about its layout and show the remains of architectural and cult structures. You will feel like real archaeologists and time travelers, touching the walls of the ancient city and exploring its caves.

Mountains, Rivers, Waterfalls, and Pools
The road to Borjomi will be accompanied by heartfelt conversations and vibrant colors of lush greenery. In the city, we will stroll through the park and walk to a gazebo where there is a well with natural Borjomi water. And then we will head to the 'second level' of the protected area: walking 20 minutes, by car (there is always someone offering tourists a ride for 15 lari) or by cable car, from the cabins of which an impressive view opens up. At the top, you will see sulfur pools, the water of which is rich in beneficial substances and minerals, so I highly recommend taking a dip!
