Tbilisi Archaeological Museum Tbilisi
Former museum
Tbilisi's former archeology museum was built in 1988. In this museum were kept the earliest specimens of tinned bronze objects in the world. Unfortunately, the museum stopped functioning a few years ago. But this is a place where my heart is and always will be, because my grandma used to take us there when me and my 7 cousins were kids. We would have a great time, we would play “Fort Boyard” and many other things that a child’s mind can imagine, and you know what it can do.
The place is very mysterious, it is closed now but you can sneak by and explore a beautiful mystic place, where you can take fantastic pictures and just sit there and enjoy yourself. Also, you can see all of Tbilisi from there -- it has a breathtaking view, you can see “Digomi Park” from there as well and you can continue your tour to its direction.
On the left of the archeology museum there is a huge Statue of St. Nino (one of the first pilgrims in Georgia).

Zghapruli Gemo is a true hidden gem! Their Lobiani is so appetizing that my sister is even willing to walk 2 whole kilometers from our home to get it.
