One simply can’t visit Georgia and skip the capital. Besides the city being the central transportation hub, it’s buzzing with activities and has numerous sights as well. The capital has incredible architecture, from the majestic Holy Trinity Cathedral to the elevated Narikala Fortress which overlooks the city. For fun and more stunning views, take a yellow Soviet service bus or funicular up to Mtatsminda Amusement Park.
2. Mtskheta
Mtskheta is a town near Tbilisi and is considered to be the centre of the Georgian Orthodox church. Because of this you’ll find many stone cathedrals spread over Mtskheta. One of the highlights is Jvari Monastery, a 6th-century complex located on a mountain top not far from the centre. It is one of the symbols of the early Orthodox church in Georgia, one of the first countries that accepted Christianity.
