Mtskheta

Guests gather in the center of Meidan, st. Abkhazi. We are waiting for an exciting walk in small cobblestone streets, on which they sell hops-suneli (condiments), churchchel, dried figs and much more. The tour begins with a visit to the monastery temple of Jvari, immortalized in literature by Mikhail Lermontov (poem "Mtsyri") (6-7 cc.). Under the sound of the wind we will go to the Jwari temple and touch its silent but warm walls. From the temple there is a fascinating view of the city of Mtskheta. Then visit the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral, the second largest church in Georgia. Here is one of the most important relics of the spiritual world - the Chiton of Jesus Christ. It was here that the Christianity was accepted and the beginning of a new era was laid. The cathedral has always been the heart of the Georgian church and is so today.
