Tbilisi

A vibrant, colorful city of contrasts

Video about Tbilisi

Cosmopolitan Tbilisi can be hard to place, with its combination of Byzantine churches, Ottoman baths and mosques, Soviet modernism, and Art Nouveau. There are even Turkish baths that harness the sulfurous waters that flow from hot springs and down a waterfall. Newfound prosperity has brought stunning new hotels, showy new parks, cable cars, and a monumental cathedral, but the Old Town’s charms remain untouched, save for the occasional paint touch up. The oldest district, which lies beneath a massive 4th-century fortress, has its own unique form of architecture, with colorful wooden homes featuring large, carved balconies. We recommend taking in the view from the fortress, or taking a cable car to Mtatsminda Park, a famous landscaped area featuring a large amusement park, and a number of restaurants, which take advantage of the park's stunning vista.

Tbilisi's diversity can be felt in its varied neighborhoods, many of which have signs explaining their history and specific architectural styles. Tbilisi's dining scene is likewise colorful, with memorable cafes, vegan eateries, countless takes on traditional cuisine, and many places with eclectic food and stories. The city's restaurants aren't the only places open late, as Tbilisi's nightlife has begun to attract international attention.

What I love about Tbilisi

The most bohemian city in the world! This is the place where East meets West, a hidden gem on the outskirts of Europe. You'll be shocked to see how much this small city can offer visitors. From ancient monuments to world famous nightlife, Tbilisi lets you travel in time, and find whatever you're looking for. Its sophisticated 19th century districts with narrow authentic streets, and grotesque Soviets giant emerge in a cocktails of culture.

It was a very organized trip. From airport pick up to walking tours and visiting Unesco sites, it was worth every penny.
