7 reasons to visit Georgia

I have been in Georgia with one month ago for first time. Is one of the beautiful country I v ever seen

Food. Georgian cuisine

This is an important aspect for me when visiting any country. I have a special category for gastronomy. Georgian cuisine carries some influences from other European and nearby Middle Eastern culinary traditions. Each historical province of Georgia has its own distinct culinary tradition, with variations such as Megrelian Kakhetian, and Imeretian cuisines. Heavy on meat dishes, the Georgian cuisine also offers a variety of vegetarian dishes.

 

Mountains from Georgia

What s the highest mountain range in Europe? The Alps? Wrong. It is the Caucasus Mountains marking the border between Georgia and Russia. While the highest peak is in Russia, Georgia lays claim to the second highest, Shkara, which at 5,193m beats Mont Blanc by nearly 400m. Georgia is a mountainous country with rugged terrain which is why it is not that difficult to find beautiful mountain tops especially in the north. Did you know that the highest continuously inhabited village in Europe is in Georgia?

 

History

Georgia is steeped in history and was inhabited byu Homo erectus since the Paleolithic Era. The Proto- Georgian tribes first appear in written history in the 12th century BC. Did you know that Joseph Stalin was born in Georgia and you can visit his birthplace in Gori?

Beaches

Admittedly, that was not the first thought that came to mind when I was planning my trip in Georgia, but I was intrigued by seeing the Black Sea. Enter, Batumi, a lovely city ion the Georgian coast with contemporary arhitecture and high-profile hotels and beaches. Batumi is very different from the rest of Georgia and is likely to give you a cultural shock after touring the rest of the country.

Glaciers

The glaciers of Georgia are mainly located along the Greater Caucasus Mountain Range. According to the data of 2015 there are 637 glaciers in Georgia with a total area of 355.80 km2

Wine

Is my preferate wine. Georgia is one of the oldest wine regions in the world. The fertile valleys of the South Caucasus house the source of the world s first cultivated grapevines and neolithic wine production, from over 8000 years ago. Among the best known regions of Georgia where wine is produced are Kakheti, Kartli, Imereti, Racha- Lechkhumi and KvemoSvaneti and Abkhazia

People

The Georgian peoples are some of the friendliest in the world. Old or young and whether they spoke English enough to communicate or not, they are a very welcoming people. You would be in luck if you are ever invites to a traditional Georgian wedding or to a supra, a traditional Georgian feast and an important part of social culture.

I think Georgia is an amazing country and you should go to feel georgian style. I hope to came back some day because are a lot of things to see. Georgia is beautiful and many tourists say is a unic place. I love Georgia!
