Weekend Break: Tbilisi - Crown Jewel of the Caucasus
With its crumbling art nouveau facades and labyrinthine cobblestone streets, Tbilisi, Georgia’s picturesque capital, may seem to be stuck in the past. Ten years ago, the city’s few scattered nightlife venues were the provenance of insalubrious oil-rich oligarchs and their Glock-sporting bodyguards.
What will you see with this Tbilisi itinerary?
More than a decade into the ambitious, Western-looking presidency of Mikhail Sakaashvili, new bars and achingly trendy music venues are cropping up alongside Tbilisi’s icon-shops and sellers of churchkhela, a tooth-dissolvingly delicious combination of walnuts and grape candy that has long been considered Georgia’s national dessert.
With artfully mismatched décor, electro-hip soundtracks, and an increasingly well-heeled bohemian clientele, Tbilisi’s new crop of cafes, galleries, and combination “art-cafes” are closer to Paris than St. Petersburg.
Ambitious, innovative, and driven, the Caucasus’s most beautiful capital is becoming a world-class destination in its own right.
