Overview of your Tbilisi tour:

The Cave City of Vardzia is remarkable. Situated in the European country of Georgia at the juncture of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, it has an over eight hundred year history. 1185 saw a woman, Tamar, on the throne of Georgia. This was a first for the country and extremely unusual in the Europe of the twelfth century. Her reign nevertheless, saw a flowering of culture and she wished to build a monastery. Vardzia would be a massive construction job now, but in the twelfth century, it was gigantic. Altogether, 13 levels were constructed with natural caves being enlarged to contain over 6, 000 dwelling places for monks and for those fleeing invaders. The Borjomi mineral water park is a very popular attraction with tourists who visit Borjomi. This is the place where the "famous" mineral water was first produced.
