The Rugby Friendship Monument | The road from the Georgian capital Tbilisi to Kazbek, also known as Military Avenue, ends in Russia’s Fladi Caucasus, the only road crossing the Caucasus Mountains into Russia, Over the years, we have made outstanding contributions to the economic and trade exchanges between Russia and Georgia. To celebrate the two-hundred-year friendship, the Ogre Friendship Monument was built on Military Avenue in 1983, standing at 2,384 meters above sea level in the form of arches, and the inner walls show different historical scenes with bright mosaic tile murals. The mural is divided into two parts, with the Virgin Mary holding Jesus as the dividing line, Russia on the left, Georgia on the right, representing war and peace, and local customs such as men and women, playing musical instruments, each mural is lifelike, A scene of singing and dancing. Unfortunately, the scene is not long. In 2008, due to the territorial South Ossetia problem, the two countries have a local war, since Georgia and Russia broke off relations, thinking that Russia has looted their land. The monument stands above a canyon, overlooking the Caucasus Mountains, and it is as bright as ever. I didn't expect that the relationship between the two countries is now frozen, which makes people feel a little regret in addition to the amazing nature. The two countries have experienced so much bitterness, and the existence of a monument of friendship, although embarrassing, may be years from now they will recover. 🚗 Traffic Raiders: At the dibube station station in Tbilisi, you can share a car with people to Kazbuek. Along the way, you pass the Ananuri Fortress and the Oge Friendship Monument. The per capita one-way is 30 Larry (about RMB 70). Many backpackers choose to stay in Kazbuek for one night. After going to the Trinity Church in St Pantsminda, the next day, take a direct bus (stopping, 10 Larry per person) back to Tbilisi. 🌟 Important reminder: someone recruited tourists to play paragliding near the Ogre Friendship Monument, but witnessed an accident after I arrived. Because the wind was too strong that day, the paraglider could not land smoothly, and finally fell on a lawn not far away, many people ran to rescue. Advise, Georgia is after all economically underdeveloped countries, playing such extreme sports is still recommended to go to countries such as New Zealand and Turkey, where the safety factor is guaranteed, and the safety of the home is the most important.
