The bathing district
The bathing district is a must-see place in the Georgian capital. It is a place of sulphur baths that soothe the skin and the joints. This place is a very nice spot to watch the sunset with its brick roofs.
The Narikala fortress and the Karlis Deda statue
The Narikala Fortress dominates the Georgian capital from Sololaki Hill. It is an enclosure bordered by a beautiful botanical garden. The fortress consists of two fortified enclosures between the public baths and the botanical garden.
Right next to it, you can discover the magnificent Karlis Deda statue, erected for the 1500 years of the city. This statue represents a woman wearing a traditional costume and holding a sword to protect the citadel.
Rustaveli Avenue
Rustaveli Avenue is one of the most attractive streets in Tbilisi as it concentrates many monuments. The walk is long enough to see the huge square where the statue of St. George stands. Walking along this avenue, you will discover important buildings and places of the city such as the National Museum of Georgia, the Parliament, the Rustaveli Theatre or even the Academy of Sciences. This avenue is a place of power and known for its modernity.

The Peace Bridge
The bridge was built over the Mtkvari River. This project was proposed by the mayor of Tbilisi when raising funds to build a modern bridge connecting the old Tbilisi with the new district. The bridge offers a beautiful view of the Metekhi Church and Narikala. It is also a must for a visit to the Georgian citadel.
Avenue Aghmashenebeli
A street in Tbilisi that can be called the “Champs Elysées”. It is a pedestrian street on the closest part of the old Tbilisi. The pedestrian area is very lively as there is a lot of activity in the colourful cafes along the street.
The Qiacheli Quarter
This area is a very nice place, a little bit far from the city centre. It’s a place where you don’t see many tourists, which makes the locals much nicer. Very cool and lively place!
