Introduction

The essence of Tbilisi tourism is concentrated in the old town. This historic area, built during the reign of King Vakhtang Gurgasali in the 4th century AD, was the starting point for the new capital of Georgia. As an important transportation hub in the Caucasus region, it has always been the most important city in Georgia. However, in the past history, due to repeated invasions from foreign enemies, the old town was destroyed many times. Most of the existing buildings were rebuilt after the burning of the city by Persian Agha Mohammad Shah in 1795. In addition, the old town has many important historical and religious buildings, showcasing the mixture and fusion of Eastern and Western cultures. Moreover, transportation, dining and accommodation in the old town are very convenient.
