Along the beach there is a long promenade with parks and cafes. It's a nice place for a walk. The beach is big and a pebble beach. A Monday in the end of June it was not many people on the beach but I can imagine there are more at weekends and in July - August. Leave a Comment

Except Jvari and Sveti-Tshoveli there ar more sights to see like the Samtavro complex, the Armaziskhevi ruins including Roman-style baths and the Bebris Tsikhe castle.

 Metekhi Church by sachara
The meaning of Metekhi is "place of a palace''
During the centuries there were a lot of changes at this fortificated place.
The first church was built here in the 5th century. There was also a palace. The palace and church were destroyed in the 13th century by the Mongols and in the same century rebuilt as a copie of the original church. The several times reconstructed palace is finally removed in the 18th century.
The church became a theatre in the 1970s and in the 1980s again a church.
From the terrace in front of the church you have nice views at the city.
At the terrace is a sculpture made by Amashukeli, one of the famous Georgian sculptors of recent times. Leave a Comment

 Mtskheta by sachara
The Jvari church has always been a symbol for Mtskheta and Georgia.
In the 6th century first a small church is built and not much later the main church is built south of the first one.
The ancient church is situated high on a hill overlooking the valley. From here the views over the valley, Mtskheta and the convergence of the two rivers is fantastic. Leave a Comment Directions: On a hill east of Mtskheta, at the other side of the river.

The main church was built in the 1130s and the small chapel (Tsminda Nino) beside the church dates from the 4th century.
The minibus stop for Tiblisi is on Davit Aghmashenebelis Kucha, just down from the church. Leave a Comment

 Tbilisi by sachara
From here we could see very well its location in the valley of the Mtkvari River and we got our first impression of the size of the city and its surroundings.
A nice early morning start, allthough there was a cold northern wind, when we visited the park. Leave a Comment Directions: Take the funicular railway from the Tavadzis Gamziri at the southbank

 Sveti Tskhoveli in
Mtskheta by MalenaN
On my way walking to Samtravo I passed a small museum with some archaeological finds. I was the only visitor and I don’t think I had to pay any entrance.
To go to Mtskheta I took a marshrutka (minibus) from Didube bus station in Tiblisi. The journey takes only 30 minutes and in June 2003 it was 0.80 lari. Leave a Comment
