We started the day by walking down toward Liberty Square and saw the Doves of Peace on the way.
Liberty Square was impressive, and it was nice to see the central column, the Monument of St. George, and all the buildings around it.
We decided to hire one of the sightseeing cars to take us around town for about an hour to see the major sights. Our first stop was the Opera and Ballet Theater of Tbilisi, which was built in a unique, neo-Moorish style of architecture.
From there, we crossed the Galaktioni Bridge to Kote Marjanishvili Square, a major cultural and architectural hub. Driving further along the river, we saw the Public Service Hall, a beautiful-looking glass building with a roof shaped like white petals.
Our next stop was the Bridge of Peace. This was a glass pedestrian bridge with a very modern and contemporary design.
The last stop was the Metekhi Bridge. From here, we could see the Metekhi Church of the Nativity of the Mother of God and the Statue of King Vakhtang Gorgasali. We also saw the Narikala Fortress, the Narikala Cable Car, and the Mother of Georgia statue in the distance.
From there, we drove back to Liberty Square and the sightseeing trip was over; it didn’t even last an hour. We were back where we started in 45 minutes. We then walked toward the Old Town wall ruins and saw the Shota Kavlashvili Sculpture.
We continued to walk through the Old Town and saw the Clock Tower and the Old Water Fountain.
We visited the Anchiskhati Basilica nearby and then continued toward the Baratashvili Bridge.
We passed by the Monuments and then the Berikaoba.
The Baratashvili Bridge had lots of interesting graffiti, and we also got nice views of the Bridge of Peace.
We then walked to Bazari for lunch and decided to go to 4 Concept for Georgian food.
We ordered a variety of dishes and all of them were very nice and tasty.
After lunch, we headed back to the Airbnb to relax, and in the evening, we went to Respublika Grill Bar for dinner, which was right across from where we were staying.
We had a nice meal with burgers, pasta, and risotto.
