The City-Museum Reserve of Mtskheta

Reviewed By 45adya - Bucharest, Romania

The renovated old houses surrounding the Mtskheta cathedral transformed in small taverns, coffee shops, wine bars and souvenir shops are very offering for many tastes. The cathedral itself with its tall stone wall is majestic. A must see at about 24 km near Tbilisi.

Svetitskhoveli Cathedral

Reviewed By S9788OVmohameds - Alexandria, Egypt

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.

Beautiful interior and exterior, free to visit, must cover knees and women cover their hair to go inside (there are sarongs to borrow at the door) and it’s in a lovely little town.

Chateau Mukhrani

Fit for Royalty; Chateau Mukhrani was founded on the tradition of winemaking in the Mukhrani area of Georgia dating back in millennia. It is the original Georgian Royal Chateau, and the only Chateau to unite four key components: the Vineyard, the Winery, the Chateau and the Winemaking history. The history of winemaking at Chateau Mukhrani started in 1878 when the first vintage was released. It was Ivane Mukhranbatoni, a descendant of the Bagrationi Royal Family, who, after returning home from France in 1876 where he learnt about the fine art of winemaking in the Bordeaux and Champagne regions, decided to introduce the concept of a Chateau in Georgia. He introduced the then contemporary winemaking methods that were already widely used in Europe, and started producing wonderful Georgian wines on the ancestral Mukhrani Estate. Chateau Mukhrani has become renowned around the world for its splendid Chateau and Cellars, wonderful gardens and pristine vineyards. The harmonious symbiosis between fertile soils and history, traditions and modern techniques, has created the masterpiece that we call Chateau Mukhrani wines. Chateau Mukhrani Wine Tours Chateau Mukhrani is one of the must-visit venues to get a fascinating insight into the traditions and secrets of Georgian winemaking, blended with remarkable stories about the Georgian Royal family. Fabulous castle and cellars, wonderful gardens and vineyards – this is what makes Chateau Mukhrani famous. This is a Place You Should Visit! Advanced reservations are more than desired.

Returning to Tbilisi from our one day trip to Gori and Jvari our driver proposed us to eat and taste Georgian wine at Chateau Mukhrani. It was an exquisite experience. The food was worthy of a Michelin star and the wines amazing.The castle is in renovation process and we had our lunch in a big wedding tent where the cuisine is also organized. For us best white wines were the Edition limitee Rkatsiteli and the Qvevri. The red local Shavkapito was also good.
