About Tbilisi

Tiflis, Georgiens Hauptstadt, liegt in einer Flussschlucht unter einer Festung: Balkonhäuser, Schwefelbäder und kühne moderne Bauten.

Die Altstadt drängt sich am Fluss Mtkwari, ihre engen Straßen sind von geschnitzten Holzbalkonen, Kirchen und Weinbars gesäumt. Abanotubani, das Badeviertel, wird von Backsteinkuppeln über Schwefelquellen gekrönt, und die Mauern der Festung Narikala überblicken das Ganze, erreichbar per Seilbahn oder einen steilen Fußweg. Die Statue der Mutter Georgiens steht auf dem Kamm, ein Schwert und eine Schale Wein in der Hand.
