About
In the heart of Georgia lies Shida Kartli, a region where the past whispers through ancient fortresses and the land tells stories of a time long gone. This central area of the country is a tapestry of history and nature, where the rugged beauty of the Caucasus Mountains meets rolling fields and fertile valleys. Shida Kartli serves as a bridge between Georgia’s eastern and western territories, acting as a cultural and geographic crossroads. The region's landscapes are as varied as they are captivating, from the serene Mtkvari River that winds through its terrain to the striking towers of the Uplistsikhe cave city, carved into the rock centuries ago.
