Absolutely breathtaking! Caucasian mountains are one of the most beautiful. Highly recommend to visit, even if just day trip from Tbilisi.

Near the Georgian village of Gergeti, at the top of a hill of 2,170 meters, in the vastness of the Caucasus Mountains and emoldurated by the awesome "Mount Kazbek", you will find the miraculous "Gergeti Trinity Church", also known as the "Holy Trinity Church". It dates from the 14th century, a very simple and isolated church, but very active as a religious temple of the "Georgian Orthodox and Apostolic Church". Visit the church, its separate bell tower and, principally, contemplate the beauty of the astonishing scenic mountains just in front of your eyes. Say a prayer and be thankful. "Gergeti Trinity Church" is a symbol of Georgia and one of the most impacting images I have ever saved in my travelling memories. Enjoy!

A UNESCO world heritage site. Mtskheta was the capital of Georgia at the time of its glory and this Cathedral is the majestic proof. Built in the early middle ages by the medieval Georgian architect Arsukisdze but the area itself dates back to the 4th century where it's believed to be the burial site of the holy mantle. It is also the burial place of many of the local Kings and queens like Vakhtang Gorgasali, Erekle the 2nd and the interesting tomb of queen Tamar the wife of king George the XI, with writing in old georgian and arabic.

The original name of the Jvari Church was "Church of the Holy Cross". The church that is considered by many Georgians to be the most sacred place in Georgia stands exactly where the "Holy Tree Cross" was established by King Mirian the 3rd, shortly after he converted to Christianity. The church has been build just above the location of the cross. The view from the top of the hilltop of the church towards the valleys of the 2 rivers is very impressive.

At Ski Gudauri ski school, we had English speaking instructor Conte from Ski Gudauri helping me and my wife, who had absolute ski-phobia, become confident beginner skiers. Instructor Kieran helped my kids to ski to grow beyond beginners now. We had a great time learning to ski for the first time - a big thank you to the instructors and also to Kate from the counter for hand-holding my terrified wife out of the ski shop on her first ski shoes! No issues with the equipment we hired - will definitely use them again!

Amazing scenery with Caucasus mountains as the backdrop at every turn while traveling along the military highway. The friendship monument is also beautiful, proudly located along this highway. There were also many paragliding activities going on..what a lovely sight to behold..
