Queen Darejan's palace, Royal palace in Old Tbilisi, Georgia

The palace features distinctive Georgian brick patterns with horizontal and vertical stripes, incorporating a decorative balcony that encircles the upper tower section.

Built in 1776 for Queen Darejan, wife of King Erekle II, the palace complex included two churches and stood upon remnants of the former Avlabari fortress wall.

The palace transformed through centuries from a royal residence to a theological seminary, then to a monastery, museum, theater, and currently serves charitable functions.

Located at 7 Urbnis Street in Tbilisi's historic district, the palace operates daily from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and offers public access through nearby metro stations.

The complex now houses a hospice, charitable services, and workshops teaching traditional crafts such as carpet making, felt processing, and embroidery techniques.
