Mount Mtatsminda is the second highest in Tbilisi. For whatever purpose you come to Georgia, it is impossible not to visit it, both for a child and a mature person. You can climb the mountain by car, but we always recommend our tourists to take the tram. Slowly, it will lift you up the mountain, revealing the city below like a pearl. It is from this mountain that the most magnificent view of the night capital! It is in the middle of this mountain that Griboyedov rests, and next to it is the church of David of Gareji and the pantheon of the famous Georgia. For those who want to visit these places, the tram makes a stop in the middle of the mountain. It was thanks to David of Gareji, who lived in a cave here in the 6th century, that the mountain got its name. David of Gareji is one of the 13 Assyrian fathers who arrived in Georgia to establish monasticism and maintain Christianity in the country, established in 327-337 by Saint Nino. What about at the very top of the mountain?
Great amusement park! Georgian Disneyland! Both for the smallest and for adults. The viewing wheel is so large that it seems that you can give a hand to the pilot of an aircraft flying by. And at the same time everything is modern and safe! And initially, Tbilisi residents simply hid on this mountain from the heat of the city, rising here for barbecue. So, gradually, the entertainment complex "Bombora" was formed. Bombora is a kind giant from the cartoon. It lies at the entrance to the park, large, pink and folded, immediately dictating a good mood. There is a television tower on the mountain, next to it is a restaurant overlooking Tbilisi. In addition to attractions, there is an excellent park area with gazebos and cafes for simple walks and enjoying the fresh air, a break from the city bustle and heat. And the original architecture, in the form of upside-down houses with Georgian spray cans? Dinosaurs? All this is here.
In the summer you can spend the whole day here and not notice how quickly it has passed! It's also a good place for cycling. All our tourists only speak enthusiastically about Mtatsminda, and this is fully justified! Where to spend a free day from excursions? Of course here! Where is the best place to take children and adults? Here. Eat? Also possible here. See Tbilisi in all its glory? Here! Touch the holy places? Here. Have a photo session? Here. Make a date? Just relax? Start exploring the city? Everything is possible here! This is our Georgia, my favorite country and city of Tbilisi. Only one place, and how many facets, impressions. The soul of Georgia truly has no boundaries, and that is why everyone wants to visit here, and who has visited once, dreams of returning again and again. Opening hours from eight in the morning to four in the morning (summer).
