If you're visiting Georgia, make sure to include these must-see sights on your itinerary. Georgia is full with amazing experiences, from experiencing the vibrant capital city of Tbilisi and sampling local wine in Kakheti to climbing through Kazbegi National Park and exploring historic cave villages.

1. Tbilisi: A visit to Tbilisi, Georgia's capital city, which is a true melting pot of old and new, is an excellent starting place for any journey to Georgia. Discover beautiful synagogues, 18th-century mosques, Georgia's oldest basilica, medieval Georgian churches, and a Zoroastrian Fire-temple Worshipper's with the help of your local guide. Head to the wave-shaped Peace Bridge that spans the Kura River and connects Old Tbilisi with the city's more modern sections for something more modern. Wander through quaint tiny alleyways and faded 19th-century wooden buildings after a hard day of sightseeing, then relax in a quirky street-side cafe to eat khachapuri while watching the hustle and bustle of local life.

2. Kakheti: Kakheti is Georgia's most well-known wine area, as well as one of the world’s oldest. Georgia's climate is perfect for wine production, with abundant natural springs and mineral-rich water from the Caucasus Mountains, as well as warm summers and mild winters. To appreciate this ideal wine-making location, travel through a beautiful countryside dotted with grapevines and incredible mountain landscapes. Visit family-owned vineyards and visit Kondoli to learn about the organic agricultural practices used to produce distinctive bio wines. Georgia also has a unique wine-making process in which the squeezed grape juice is fermented underground in giant qvevris pots (egg-shaped clay caskets).

3. Kazbegi: In Georgia's Kazbegi region, you'll find emerald-green alpine meadows and towering snow-capped mountains. Kazbegi National Park, which covers 8,700 hectares on the northern slopes of the Caucasus peaks, is home to a diverse range of vegetation and fauna. Among the craggy peaks, you might see a pack of roaming wolves or a lone bear looking for food. Don your hiking boots and set out on a pilgrimage to the Church of the Holy Trinity, which sits above a blanket of green in a natural amphitheatre of rugged mountains, at the dizzy heights of Gergeti village. Mount Kazbegi, steeped in mythology and religious history, is supposed to be the site of the eternal chaining of the Greek Titan Prometheus, as well as the discovery of ancient Abrahamic treasures.

4. Uplistsikhe Cave Town: Step back in time and visit the Silk Road cave town of Uplistsikhe on the banks of the Mtkvari River to see a full town cut into the mountainside, complete with streets, churches, palaces, and residences. The town became a significant city on Byzantium's commerce route with India and China in the first millennium BC, and age-old relics from the Bronze and Middle Ages have been uncovered here. Wander through vaulted rooms chiseled into ivory-colored rock, peek into hollow caves that formerly housed religious rites' sacred shrines, and sit on the cascading tiers of a timeworn amphitheatre.

5. Sighnaghi: The picturesque town of Sighnaghi, often known as the 'Paris of Georgia,' is set on a lush hilltop in the Kakheti region and provides far-reaching vistas of the Khaketi Winelands against a dramatic backdrop of the towering Greater Caucasus mountain ranges. Visit a 16th-century wine cellar to try some of the region's wonderful red and white wines, which have been made here for over 300 years, and stroll through the picturesque cobblestone alleyways dotted with 18th-century houses, overhanging wooden balconies, and terracotta tiled roofs.

6. Vardzia Caves: The ancient cave monastery of Vardzia, built into a towering rock face, is one of Georgia's most attractive attractions. The structure was built as a bastion against the Turkish Sultanate by King Giorgi III, and his daughter, Tamar the Great, later built a labyrinth of caves to further defend her people. Explore the mountain's underground maze of candle-lit chapels, halls, refectories, and wine cellars, all connected by small passageways and stone stairways. It's difficult to comprehend how a city could have survived here. Monks, on the other hand, still live in the mountain caves, and the old irrigation canals provide them with water, allowing them to survive in this harsh area.

7. Svaneti: Trek into Georgia's Svaneti region to get off the main path. Indigenous populations live in secluded settlements nestled among the snow-capped peaks and deep gorges of the Greater Caucasus Mountains. The luscious scenery of emerald green pastures is punctuated with medieval stone towers known as koshki, and enormous glaciers fall down valleys toward the inky-blue lakes and rivers. Stay in the village of Becho, which sits in the shadow of Mount Ushba, dubbed the "Matterhorn of the Caucasus," and meet the local Svans to learn about their distinct culture and centuries-old traditions
