One of my most adventurous journeys of the year took place in October, when I headed to Georgia (the country). Take a listen to my perspective while looking at the pictures below.
The www.georgia.travel website isn't up and running, yet. If you can read Georgian (good luck with that), click here. Although what I am saying on the live stream doesn't always match the images, more pictures can be seen here.
Mother Georgia Stands Over Tbilisi |
Tbilisi's architecture is a mix of ancient and modern. The white spaceship is the Tbilisi Public Service Hall, affectionately known as The Mushroom. |
Monks at the Alaverdi Monastery in the Khakheti region has been making wines in qvervi for more than 1000 years. |
Georgia has been producing wine longer than any other place in the world.... 8000 years! |
The Sixth Century Jvari Monastery near Mtskheta is a UNESCO World Heritage Site |
Stalin was born here. The Stalin Museum in his hometown of Gori (appropriately-named) is a throwback to Soviet times. |
The Tskaltubo Health Resort is where members of the Soviet Ministry of Defense took the waters back in the day. |
While considered luxury during its heyday, most would consider the rooms and facilities rather spartan now. |
The Caucasus Mountain Range contains Europe's highest peak. |
