🌋 Several large stones fell off a cliff in Vardzia.
The abandoned city Vardzia is one of the main attractions of Georgia. The rock, consisting of many man-made and natural caves, is located off the coast of the Kura in the Samtskhe-Javakheti region. Eight floors of the complex are open, interconnected by stairs, tunnels and secret passages. The heyday of the city-fortress came during the reign of Queen Tamara, many caves were expanded and landscaped, the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary was built. Also a library, baths, and a sewerage system were built on its territory. However, time has not been kind to the city-fortress. Most of it was destroyed by numerous earthquakes. In addition to natural disasters, it also suffered from invaders - Persians and Turks.
❗️Yesterday, several large stones collapsed there, specialists were called to the place. According to preliminary information, Vardzia is not in danger.
👍 But these news is a good reason to visit this place.

🍇 Grapes are being harvested in Georgia
Today, both popular varieties and very rare varieties known only to connoisseurs are carefully grown in the country. The most popular in Georgia are Saperavi and Rkatsiteli, but the list reaches 500 grape varieties.
❤️ My priorities are as follows: Ojaleshi, Usakhelauri, Khvanchkara, Mtsvane and Tsolikauri. Manufacturers may be different, sometimes 2016 differs from 2018 for one winery. I am not a connoisseur, but there are so many good wines in Georgia, that you should just try them all 😉

🇬🇪😁 Residents of Kutaisi celebrated the repair of the city stairs near the railway station with a feast and songs.
Everyone was invited to drink wine, eat food from their garden and sing together.

😎 Two stories related to glasses and Georgia happened yesterday.
📍 You can see the first one on the photo. A resident of Guria posted it on Facebook with the caption “I bought bread. I came home, I was looking at it ... and it was looking at me". I would say - no comment 😅.
📍The second story came from Milan, where two Georgian citizens wanted to be part of high fashion and hid 1000-euro glasses in their pockets in one of the boutiques. One was detained at the exit, the second managed to escape.

🌨 It is snowy and cold in the mountainous regions of Georgia today.
On the video you can see Gomismta, Bakhmaro and Svaneti.
❄️ "Winter is coming" - as it is said.
