Mtskheta city tour
Visit UNESCO world heritage site just 30 minutes drive from Tbilisi. The historic churches of Mtskheta, former capital of Georgia, are outstanding examples of medieval religious architecture in the Caucasus. They show the high artistic and cultural level attained by this ancient kingdom.
Mtskheta is nestled in a broad depression on the banks of the Aragvi and Kura rivers which converge into a vibrant hue of rusty orange. The surrounding territory is semi-arid with sweeping slopes and rolling hills ringed by rugged mountain ridges. Georgian villas dot the earth tone hillsides in the perimeter. Mtskheta has become one of the more exclusive sub-urban enclaves of the Tbilisi metro area… It is known among locals for its surreal beauty and mild climate which can be enjoyed year round.
