atient pagan traditions transformed in theater's history.
Passing the avenue of "contrasts" with the remains of the fortress walls, we get to the Puppet Theatre, in the repertoire of which there are performances only for an adult audience.

and its unique icon history. The oldest church in Tbilisi. Despite the complicated history of our capital, where countless invaders, bloody wars, political restrictions took place, service in this church have not been stopped for 15 centuries.
The ultra-modern style - chrome and glass - initially caused doubts among the townspeople regarding the "correctness and appropriateness" of the project. Now it is one of the symbols of the city, loved by Google and social algorithms. networks with their popular species at any time of the day or night, and in any season. Time judged the dispute in the then split Tbilisi society, when youth and youth were inspired by modernism in the center of the old city, and maturity shook its head, doubting the possibility of combining radical innovations and familiar classics.

The fortress and the houses adjacent to its foot with an ensemble of openwork balconies are the oldest part of the Old Town. Dominating Tbilisi, this fortress consists of two walled sections on a mountain range between the botanical garden and the oldest part of the city called Kala.
The fortress was built in the Arabic style, this guardian of the city stood here long before our city became the capital.
A natural canyon in the middle of the old city, forming the second stage of the cascading waterfall of the Tsavkisitskali River. This place literally ten years ago was part of the territory of the botanical garden, and even earlier the royal gardens. On the slopes of the canyon, fig tree sprouts make their way, which grow in large numbers along the top of the canyon in the Batonian Garden itself.
