Sololaki Tbilisi

Oldest and dearest

""Sololaki" in Tbilisi is one of its oldest and most cultural parts. Here you'll find magical old houses with beautiful doors & balconies..."

Sololaki... one of the oldest and most cultural parts of Tbilisi, magical old houses with beautiful doors and balconies. Every simple brick and house has its own character and history here - even Narikala looking down on me and the beautiful fantasies that go on in my mind while being in Sololaki...

For years, I would spend most of my time in Sololaki. All the mascarons on buildings are my friends and its hard for me to see them getting old and not cared by anyonee. This place really has a soul, eclectic and old, a perfect place for finding yourself, one walk and there will always be a place in your heart for Georgia!

Sometimes I just go there alone for a walk and sketch the houses, you find so many details while being alone. It really is a place that allows you to muse and feel the joy of life - that is why you should really look into every detail and find the heart of Georgia!

Soviet Border

Historical brutalism

Tbilisi's center has all the nice places but the soviet parts surround it like a fence. To me, this part is the more unique and interesting...

Zurab Tsereteli Mosaic

Soviet leftover

This mosaic by Zurab Tereteli in Tbilisi was made for the Central bus station in 1973. It's a beautiful modernist Soviet work. Not enough people notice it!
