The most interesting church I've ever visited! Beautiful paintings with natural colors, interesting history and kings graves. Nice guide who spoke only Germany, but slowly enough for a Nordic citizen to understand

I was there in 2017. The cable cars were running. I went on two of them. After the first, I needed some real persuasion to go on the second. There was no way I would do a third. And that was the attraction of the place - the fact they had these decrepit, rusty flying coffins that were free to travel on for brave tourists and normal locals (who used them regularly and didn't think anything of it). The thing is... I think the ship has sailed on these cable cars. I have heard they have closed for maintenance. I believe one of the following to be true: 1) They realise how dangerous these things are and don't want the reputation for killing tourists. 2) They realise they can make some money out of these cable cars but feel bad about charging a fee for these rusty deathtraps. 3) They are happy that they have cast off the yoke of their former Soviet masters and have progressed as a strong, independent nation but yet... The tourists are still more impressed by the 1950s Soviet technology. Damn! The increase in tourism recently has seen a huge increase in cable car activity and, legitimately, they might feel they just need to do a bit of extra maintenance. My only fear is that the authorities miss the point as to why tourists want to travel on these cable cars and that they end up just replacing them with a new system. It wouldn't surprise me - when I was there, nobody really understood why I wanted to go on them. Perhaps they just think that lots of tourists really want to go to the tops of those hills!

To climb the stairs to this monastery carved into rock is to travel back in time. There is a strict dress code; scarves are provided to cover women's heads and legs. Looking a bit like a babushka, I lit a candle and prayed. Then we wandered through the carved stone chapels to admire the Orthodox icons and the views of Chiatura below. Our guide, Levan, was a fountain of information on each of the saints depicted. We visited in late January and were the only tourists joining a few people who came to pray. A highly recommended stop if you come here to ride the cable cars.

We went here just to have a look. And ended up buying hand crafted wooden spoons, roller pins, chopping boards of walnut for nothing. Nugbari (why didn’t we buy more! It is the walnut grape covered sausage like things hanging here and there). And some good amount of fruits, yeah and some fruity tea as well. Friendly locals and very interesting place and surprisingly clean and well organised.
