We are travelling from India to Georgia, one of the most underrated countries in Europe. Georgia is just as breathtakingly beautiful as Switzerland and a lot cheaper in terms of budget.
We spent 5 days in Georgia and this is the first video of our Georgia travel series. We landed in Tbilisi in night and explored the entire city on next day.
So on Day 1, we went to places like:
• Mtatsminda Park - This is the most beautiful green place in the city. To reach here you need to take a Funicular train or you can hike up to the top and the hike to Mtatsminda Park is extremely beautiful. We went up by funicular and came down hiking.
• Tbilisi Cable Car - You can take the cable car to reach Narikala Fortress, Tbilisi Botanical Garden, Mother of Georgia Statue, and see sulfur baths below.
• Trinity Cathedral of Tbilisi - We saw the most beautiful sunset in the world here!
• Gabriadze Clock Tower / Puppet Theatre - While exploring the streets of Georgia, we found this awesome centuries old clock tower in which a puppet comes and rings the bell every hour. There is a very popular puppet show inside this tower for which you have to pre-book the tickets as it is always sold out.
• Bridge of Peace - This is the architectural landmark of Tbilisi - you can go there at night for seeing the well-lit bridge and enjoy the ambiance.
• Rike Park - You can spend your time in this park which has some prominent architectural features of Tbilisi and also shop for souvenirs in the touristy Meidan Bazar market nearby.
• The Chronicles of Georgia: On our second day, we rented a car in Georgia and first we went to the best place in Tbilisi - The Chronicles of Georgia - and then we headed towards the Switzerland of Eastern Europe, Kazbegi Mountains, also called Stepantsminda. On the way we also saw Gudauri Friendship Monument (Gudauri Panorama). This is in our second video of the series, don't miss it!
