Old Tbilisi, Historic district in Tbilisi, Georgia

The streets of Old Tbilisi feature traditional Georgian wooden balconies, cobblestone pathways, and ancient churches along both sides of the Kura River.

Dating from the 5th century, Old Tbilisi developed under Persian, Arab, Ottoman, and Russian influences, with most pre-19th century structures destroyed during the Persian invasion of 1795.

The district contains numerous theaters, art galleries, traditional wine cellars, and local craft shops that represent Georgian heritage through performances and exhibitions.

Visitors can reach Old Tbilisi's attractions via public buses, minibuses, and the subway system, with many accommodations available in restored historical buildings.

The district's sulfur bathhouses, built on natural hot springs, continue their centuries-old tradition of offering thermal treatments in dome-roofed buildings.
