Mirza Riza Khan House

The Mirza Riza Khan House is a cultural heritage monument in Borjomi that combines Persian design elements with Georgian influences. The rooms feature wooden windows with colored glass and hand-painted decorative surfaces on walls throughout the structure.

The house was built in 1892 and belonged to Mirza Riza Khan, who served as the Iranian Consul in Georgia from 1889 to 1894. His position reflected the diplomatic relationships between Iran and Georgia during that period.

The building shows how Persian and Georgian construction traditions came together, with Iranian craftsmen creating the detailed interior decorations. Visitors can sense this cultural exchange through the careful ornamental work and thoughtful design choices throughout the rooms.

The building sits in central Borjomi and is easily reached on foot. The rooms and stairs allow visitors to move through several levels of the house, where details can be observed everywhere.

The house contains extraordinary mirrors and detailed artwork that show the strong diplomatic connections between Iran and Georgia in the 19th century. These handcrafted elements are rare and reveal the high status of the original owner.
