Da Tbilisi: tour di un giorno alle grotte di Uplistsikhe e alla città di Mtskheta

Visit the ancient rock-cut town of Uplistsikhe and the city of Mtskheta on a private guided trip. See UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Jvari monastery and Svetitskhoveli cathedral.
Visit the sights that reflect the historical significance of the Kartli region on a guided tour. The region was the crossroads of the Old Silk Road and the birthplace of the spread of Christianity in Georgia.
Embark on a journey through the Kartli region from the period of the Kingdom of Iberia to the present day. The first place you'll visit is Jvari Monastery, built on a high hill near Mtskheta in the seventh century.
Jvari is one of the rare sights preserved in Georgia with its important religious purpose and architectural solidity. The monastery is listed as a World Heritage site by UNESCO. From this place is an unobstructed view above the city of Mtskheta.

The next stop is for a walking tour in Mtskheta. Visit another World Heritage Site listed by UNESCO: the Svetitskhoveli Cathedral. Through the centuries it represented the religious center of Christian Georgia. The Robe of Jesus Christ is buried in the cathedral.
The next city to visit is Gori, where you'll see a medieval citadel of the city. If you wish, you can visit the museum of Joseph Stalin, the leader of the Soviet Union (entry fees not included). After lunch, travel even further in history to explore the Uplistsikhe cave town.

The city was carved out of rock and is one of the oldest settlements in the Caucasus. There are archaeological monuments kept around Uplistsikhe, of which the oldest one belongs to the Early Bronze Age and Mtkvar-Araksi culture.
The whole complex of caves served a variety of household purposes: residence, cellar, storehouse, chapel, prison, etc. It is impossible to correctly describe in words what the ancient people created at the cost of labor.
