Baratashvili Bridge, Pedestrian bridge in Tbilisi, Georgia

The Baratashvili Bridge is a three-span reinforced-concrete beam bridge over the Kura (Mtkvari) River in Tbilisi, built in 1963–1966 to designs by engineer G. Kartsivadze and architects Sh. Kavlashvili and V. Kurtishvili. It is 150 m long and 26 m wide, with six traffic lanes and walkways set on two levels. The intermediate piers are monolithic T-shaped frames tapering downward, and the central span crosses the river channel.

The bridge was built in the 1960s and replaced an earlier structure that had occupied the same location. This represented a significant modernization of the city center's infrastructure.

The bridge is nicknamed the Bridge of Love after Nikoloz Baratashvili, the romantic poet honoured when the name was given in 1966; before that it was the Mukhrani Bridge, after the district and the Bagrationi-Mukhrani princes' palace on the right bank. Sculptures titled "Youth" by G. Japaridze were placed on the bridge in 2008.

The bridge is easy to reach on foot and offers a direct crossing through the city center. Visiting during daylight hours lets you see the bronze details and surrounding area clearly.

The bridge's name honours Nikoloz Baratashvili, but it was originally the Mukhrani Bridge, after the district and the Bagrationi-Mukhrani princes' palace on the right bank. A memorial plaque on the right bank, upstream side, recalls the older Mukhrani bridge, whose two piers were blown up in 1909 and whose remains show when the water is low.
