About Tiflis

Tiflis, capital de Georgia, se extiende en una garganta bajo una fortaleza: casas con balcones, baños sulfurosos y audaces edificios modernos.

La ciudad vieja se agrupa a lo largo del río Mtkvari, con calles estrechas bordeadas de balcones de madera tallada, iglesias y bares de vino. Abanotubani, el barrio de los baños, está coronado por cúpulas de ladrillo sobre fuentes sulfurosas, y las murallas de la fortaleza de Narikala lo dominan todo, a las que se llega en teleférico o por una subida empinada. La estatua de la Madre de Georgia se alza en la cresta con una espada y una copa de vino.
