Lazika, Planned urban development in Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti, Georgia.

The proposed city of Lazika encompasses residential zones, commercial districts, educational facilities, and infrastructure along the Black Sea coast of western Georgia.

President Mikheil Saakashvili announced the Lazika development project on December 4, 2011, with construction beginning in September 2012 through the inauguration of an administrative building.

The city derives its name from the ancient Kingdom of Lazica, which occupied the territory of current western Georgia during the early medieval period.

The location between Anaklia and Kulevi provides direct access to maritime routes, positioning the development as a potential center for trade and logistics operations.

The development plan included a special legal framework based on English law for commercial transactions, requiring constitutional amendments from the Parliament of Georgia in 2012.
