Tbilisi’s old German neighborhood, Marjanishvili is one of the loveliest, liveliest neighborhoods you can pick to walk around. After you experience its historic architecture and endearingly offbeat character, you won’t mind the price tag. What better way to start talking about Chugureti than with the king of the squares of the city – the Station Square. Situated at the far northern corner of the…

In the Development plan of Tbilisi from 1906, only the Nobility Gymnasium building is mentioned in this area (currently the 1st building of Tbilisi State University). Then Tbilisi Spiritual Seminary was built not far from the gymnasium, where Stalin studied, by the way. Now it is one of the clinics of Tbilisi State Medical University (formerly the 9th Hospital). Since January 1906 Vake was incorporated into the area of…

Didube Station is a domestic hub of Marshkutras (minibusses). If you need a ride to the North or the West you go there. This is where buses to a number of locations, such as Vladikavkaz and the ski-fields at Bakuriani depart from. The Didube markets are located nearby, and the central bus station lies adjacent to the metro. This neighborhood is located roughly across the river from Saburtalo and stretches from the North…

It’s almost impossible to miss – it has palaces, giant churches, crying mountains, huge parks, etc. There’s a lot to see and do in Avlabari. Avlabari is more residential than touristy, yet very close to the city center, from where there are two equally amazing paths to reach it (well there are others too, but they aren’t that exciting) – either crossing the Bridge of Peace, (the giant bow-shaped glass bridge) or walk up the Baratashvili Rise accompanied by the sounds…
