Profitable! Mtskheta, Jvari, Uplistsikhe

So, we go to the ancient capital of Georgia – Mtskheta. On the way we will visit the Temple of Jvari ("Holy Cross Temple"), built in the VI century. It stands on a high mountain, from where a beautiful panorama of the confluence of two majestic rivers Aragvi and Kura opens. According to legend, on this very mountain, the Holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Nina herself erected a cross.

After that, we will head to Uplistsikhe, the first Georgian cave city. This unique archaeological complex, carved into a rock on the banks of the Kura River, was once an important trading and religious center of Kartli. You will see ancient temples, living quarters, streets and secret passages, learn about the life and beliefs of people who lived here thousands of years ago.

Then we head to Gori. The main attraction of the town is the Stalin House Museum, built in the form of a marble sarcophagus and with a sculpture of Stalin in front of it, one of the few preserved in the world.

What awaits you at the museum:

• A modest house museum: You will begin your visit by inspecting a small wooden house, under a protective pavilion. Here, in two rooms, Stalin’s family lived, and it was in this house that he was born and spent his childhood. This place gives a glimpse of a humble beginning in the life of a man who later came to absolute power.
• Armored wagon: You will see Stalin’s famous personal armored car, in which he traveled throughout the USSR and beyond. This car is a symbol of his status and paranoia, as well as an important historical artifact associated with the Yalta and Tehran conferences.
• Main exhibition: In the main building of the museum there is an extensive collection of exhibits.

• Transport, guide services, water, wifi
