About Tbilisi

Tbilisi, capital da Geórgia, estende-se numa garganta sob uma fortaleza: casas com varandas, banhos sulfurosos e ousados edifícios modernos.

A cidade velha concentra-se ao longo do rio Mtkvari, com ruas estreitas ladeadas de varandas de madeira esculpida, igrejas e bares de vinho. Abanotubani, o bairro dos banhos, é coroado por cúpulas de tijolo sobre fontes sulfurosas, e as muralhas da fortaleza de Narikala dominam tudo, alcançadas de teleférico ou por uma subida íngreme. A estátua da Mãe da Geórgia ergue-se na crista com uma espada e uma taça de vinho.
