Tbilisi A dream city.
(Capital of Georgia-The country, not the state in the US)
When I first learnt about this country, I thought I was hearing about one the states which are part of the USA. Later I learnt that Georgia is one of the most ancient countries in the world! I immediately was curious to know why a Christian-like flag lives among many Muslim neighbours. I went on to investigate about its roots in history and I was struck by the richness of its culture, literature and the countless middle ages remains, spread all across the country. Similarly, their religious legacy is marked in every church they have, the paintings, the iconography, and the architecture of the building and basilicas created a real impact on me.
The Georgian landscape
If I have the chance to go, I would like to visit some of the many monasteries, such as Jvari up in the mountain and near to Mtskheta. Also, the state museum Joseph Stalin is a must to visit once there, this will show me the days under the Communist regime occupation and last but not least, the Dadiani Palace History and Architecture museum; which is considered one of the most important in the Caucasus.
Lastly, as a language teacher, I fell in love with its language and writing system. I dream travelling to Tbilisi (or any other city) and hear the people talking in their language. Also, I would love seeing the streets signs, the newspapers even how they look or how Georgian sounds like on television! Since their letters are so different to ours, I’d love experiencing every day Georgian. I am convinced that I would get involved in a course to learn the language and their characters some day.
Dadiani Palace History and Architecture Museum
On my next holiday's planning, I would definitely consider going to Georgia!

ReplyDeleteWow, I had the same idea about Georgia, I didn't know that is a country! The fact that is a christian country in the middle of muslims it also catches my attention. There is no doubt the Georgia is an amazing place to visit if you can explore and learn about your culture.
ReplyDeleteWow! I didn't know there was a country called Georgia. And the truth is that i am quite impressed that being one of the oldest countries in the world, it has a low recognition. I am struck by what you say about the language, i will definitely look for an audio to listen to it.
ReplyDeleteCorrection!
DeleteWow! I didn't know there was a country named Georgia. To be honest, I am quite impressed that being one of the oldest countries in the world, it has a low recognition. I am struck by what you say about the language, I will definitely look for an audio to listen to it.

ReplyDeleteI feel so sorry that I can't see this before. Georgia is definitly a very interesting city, and the blog you wrote made me feel a big desire to visit it. I hope we can talk about it and some other beautiful places as soon as possible.
ReplyDeleteI think is curious the way this country is related to communist and all the history behind, in the photos is possible to see the beautiful green sight, which makes me think that is really calm and happy place to visit, and even to live! Anyway, is always interesting to learn about a new country
ReplyDeleteIt seems like a very lovely city. I think I never heard a single word of any person that lives in Georgia, so I don't know what lenguage they use. By the way, by the pictures you uploaded, I imagine a city full of intersing arquitecture, also it seems very similar to the pictures of Greece country.
ReplyDeleteI'm consider Georigia is a place very nice, its landscape is incredible. I do not know it lenguaje and neither their customs. However, I'm would like travel this place, because it seems like a place very quiet and there I could relax.

ReplyDeletewow! , I didn't know there was a country called Georgia. One of my dreams is a travel of the world and i like the part say the countless middle ages remains, the paintings and the architecture.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe there is a museum dedicated to Iósif Stalin life! Everything I read here about Georgia seems different to me than I thought it did.
