Top 10 attractions in Dashbashi
Holy Trinity Cathedral of Tbilisi
Holy Trinity Cathedral of Tbilisi stands on Elia Hill on the left bank of the Mtkvari River and is the main cathedral of the Georgian Orthodox Church. The church adopts the traditional Georgian cross-dome architectural style, with the central dome covered in gold leaf and a gilded cross standing at the top, reaching a total height of nearly 100 m including the underground section. Thanks to its massive size and commanding position, its golden dome can be seen from almost anywhere in the city of Tbilisi. The interior of the church is also worth a close look. In the northeast corner, there is a mosaic icon of the Virgin Mary; the southeast corner houses a display case with a cross and a handwritten Bible; and the northwest corner displays a model of the holy city of Jerusalem made of mica. The church also has several chapels underground, and the main murals were painted by contemporary Georgian artists in a traditional style. In addition to the main cathedral, the entire complex includes auxiliary facilities such as a separate bell tower, a monastery, and a seminary, which are quite impressive in scale. As the mother church of the Georgian Orthodox Church, the cathedral hosts Orthodox rituals and religious activities all year round. The interior murals and mosaic decorations create a solemn religious atmosphere, and from the cathedral's platform, you can overlook the city of Tbilisi and the scenery on both banks of the Kura River.Tbilisi · 58.8 km from Dashbashi
Bridge of Peace
Bridge of Peace is a pedestrian bridge over the Kura River in downtown Tbilisi, featuring an arched body with a steel frame and glass canopy. The bridge is approximately 150m long, connecting Rike Park on the riverbank with the streets of the Old Town, and is also considered a pedestrian passage between the new city and the old city. It was designed by an Italian architect. The entire steel structure was prefabricated in Italy and then transported to Tbilisi for on-site assembly. After its completion in 2010, it quickly became a highly recognizable modern landmark of the city. Its rounded, undulating shape is often compared to a marine creature arching its back, which is why it earned the nickname "Shrimp Bridge."Tbilisi · 58.1 km from Dashbashi
Uplistsikhe
Uplistsikhe is situated on a towering sandstone cliff along the Mtkvari River in eastern Georgia and is a rock-hewn cave city that was in use from the early Iron Age through the Middle Ages. It long served as the religious and political center of the ancient Kingdom of Kartli. At its peak, the city was home to about 20,000 people, with temples, theaters, pharmacies, bakeries, wineries, and even drainage tunnels carved directly into the rock. The entire city covers about 8 hectares, and walking through it feels like walking through a fully functional stone city. Despite thousands of years of wind erosion and earthquake damage, the main layout remains largely intact.Kvakhvreli · 43 km from Dashbashi
Ananuri Fortress Complex
Ananuri Fortress Complex is located on the banks of the Aragvi River, approx. 70 km north of Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, and adjacent to the Zhinvali Reservoir. It is a nearly unavoidable stop when traveling north along the Georgian Military Highway toward Kazbegi. Since the 13th century, this has been a castle and military fortress for the feudal lords of the Aragvi dynasty, with the existing walls and main structures mostly dating back to the 16th–17th centuries. It consists of two castles, upper and lower, and continuous walls. The lower castle with its round tower is now just ruins, while the side along the ridge, along with the square Sheupovari tower, is well-preserved. Climbing the tower offers a panoramic view of the turquoise Zhinvali Reservoir and the mountains on the opposite bank. The scene featuring the walls, church domes, and the surrounding landscape makes this a popular location for travelers in Georgia.Ananuri · 80.2 km from Dashbashi
Narikala Castle
Narikala Castle dominates the ridge south of Tbilisi's Old Town, with the sulfur bath district at its foot. Adjacent to the Tbilisi sulfur bath area, its commanding location offers a view of the winding Kura River, the dense buildings of the Old Town, the Bridge of Peace, and the distant mountain view. Its history dates back to the 4th century, and it has since undergone expansions and renovations across various historical periods, witnessing the development of Tbilisi under the influence of different dynasties and cultures. Combining historical relics, religious culture, and panoramic city views, it is an important place to understand the history and urban landscape of Tbilisi.Tbilisi · 58 km from Dashbashi
Liberty square
Liberty square is located in the heart of Tbilisi and is one of the city's key public squares and transportation hubs, as well as an important connection point between the Old Town and modern commercial districts. With a long history, it has gone by different names over time, reflecting the development and changes in Georgia's modern history. Today, it is not only an important geographical center of the city but also a common venue for local public events, commemorative ceremonies, and celebrations. Blending historical memory, urban life, and modern commerce, it is an important place to understand the urban layout of Tbilisi and the culture of Georgia.Tbilisi · 57.5 km from Dashbashi
The Clock Tower
The Clock Tower stands at the entrance of an alley in Tbilisi's Old Town, right next to the puppet theater founded by Rezo Gabriadze. The tower leans and features a mix of old and new bricks, looking from a distance like an old tower that might collapse at any moment. The walls are covered with handmade ceramic tiles, hiding small figurines, birds, animals, and playful patterns. The whole structure looks like a house straight out of a fairy tale book. Its signature is the hourly performance: on the hour, a small door at the top of the tower opens, an angel with golden wings leans out, and strikes the bell with a small hammer. To see the full process, it is recommended to wait on the street a few minutes in advance. Every day at noon and in the evening, a window at the base of the tower also hosts a puppet show called "The Circle of Life," which depicts the life cycle of meeting, starting a family, growing old, and saying goodbye in just a few minutes. You can watch it right from the street.Tbilisi · 58 km from Dashbashi
Mt Kazbek
Mt Kazbek is located on the border between northern Georgia and Russia. It is a dormant volcano with a double-coned mountain body at an elevation of approx. 5,000m. It is the third-highest peak in Georgia and one of the few volcanic cones in the Caucasus Mountains. The peak is covered in snow year-round, and multiple glaciers hang from the mountain. The surrounding area features deep valleys, glaciers, meadows, and alpine rock faces. Due to its high altitude, the summit is covered in snow year-round, creating a sharp contrast between the white snow-capped peak and the dark rocks, which looks particularly spectacular in clear weather.Georgia · Kazbegi
Tbilisi sea
Tbilisi sea is a large artificial reservoir located in the northeastern suburbs of Tbilisi. Built in the 1950s, it still serves as a source of urban water supply. Beaches, lawns, and walking paths are distributed around the lake, making it a popular spot for locals to cool off and play in the water during the summer: some sunbathe on the beach or go swimming, while others have picnics or play beach volleyball. Sailboats, jet skis, and water skis can often be seen crossing the lake, and interested visitors can also find places to experience water sports by the lakeside. In the evening, the lake surface reflects the distant mountains and the setting sun, making it very pleasant to sit on the shore and watch the sunset.Tbilisi · 62.6 km from Dashbashi
Mother of Kartli
Mother of Kartli is one of the symbols of Tbilisi, standing atop Sololaki Hill next to the old town, adjacent to Narikala Castle. It was erected in 1958 to celebrate the 1500th anniversary of Tbilisi. This approx. 20 m tall female statue is dressed in traditional Georgian attire, facing the city, overlooking the Kura River valley and the surrounding historic area, showcasing distinct national cultural characteristics. This is not only a large-scale public art piece but also carries the historical memory and national spirit of Georgia, serving as an important window for understanding the urban culture of Tbilisi.Tbilisi · 57.7 km from Dashbashi

The most striking feature of the church is undoubtedly its pure gold-clad dome, dazzling in the sunlight and exuding a gentle solemnity when illuminated at night. It's worth noting that the church's construction was primarily funded by donations from ordinary citizens—it's not just a building, but a symbol of Georgians rediscovering their faith and solidifying their national identity after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

It is a beautifully designed bridge which is lovely to walk over! And is covered in lights during the night :)

Uplistsich Cave Kingdom is a city carved out of stone. The unique and rare scenery is shocking. Despite the baptism of wind and rain for 5,000 years, there are still well-preserved cave churches, wine cellar conference halls and other buildings. It has become a world-famous cultural heritage.

We stopped at Ananuri on the way along the Georgian Military Highway in July. The fortress sits right by the water with mountains behind it — a very picturesque spot. Inside there's an old church, and you can climb the towers for views over the reservoir. Entry is free. It gets crowded, especially during the day, but the grounds are large enough. Easy to combine with a trip to Kazbek — it's right on the way. I'd recommend making a stop.

The Mother Fortress is located high in Georgia, from where you can see the whole of Georgia. In the evening, you can take a cable car up the mountain to wait for the sun to set and watch the sunset. The temperature in Tbilisi at night is only over 20 degrees in this season, which is really comfortable.

The weather with sunny skies all day seems to wash away anyone's melancholy. Even in the middle of summer, the breeze makes the hot summer mild and pleasant. So far, I really like it here and I also like to continue to stay.

The Gabriadze Theater's clock tower is the most magical and doll-like place in Tbilisi!
We simply couldn't miss it. It looks like it came straight out of an old fairy tale: all crooked and whimsical, decorated with vibrant mosaics created by Rezo Gabriadze himself.
We arrived just in time to see the doors at the very top open, and an angel with golden wings appear and begin striking the bell with a hammer.
You could spend hours examining the details of this tower; every tile is unique. I highly recommend it!

One day, it felt like there's more to the Duku Highway than just the four seasons.
