Tbilisi Walking Tour
Tbilisi, Georgia
Why Walk Tbilisi
Tbilisi straddles the Mtkvari River in a narrow valley, with the old town climbing steeply beneath the Narikala Fortress. The Abanotubani sulfur bath district has offered hot spring bathing since the 13th century. The old town is a tangle of wooden-balconied houses, ancient churches, and winding lanes. Rustaveli Avenue passes the Opera House, National Museum, and Parliament. The Dry Bridge Market is a sprawling flea market of Soviet memorabilia. The cable car to Narikala provides sweeping views, and the Peace Bridge connects old and new towns. Georgian cuisine — khinkali dumplings, khachapuri cheese bread, and natural wines — is one of the world's great undiscovered food traditions.
