One Day Monastery and Cave Tour
The Davit Gareja monastery complex was built in the sixth century and since then has contributed to the religious and cultural development of Georgia. Take a look at the numerous cells, churches, chapels, refectories, living quarters, and walls covered with frescos; they will certainly provoke your interest.
Sighnaghi is fenced within the remnants of a fortification. While looking at the colourful houses, wooden balconies furnished with flowers and antique carpets, you lose your sense of time and feel as if you have entered a different era. There are also two distinguished churches of St. George and St. Stephen found here. The romantic town has an Archaeological Ethnographical Museum where interesting materials found during archaeological excavations are displayed.
In Telavi and its surroundings you can find many interesting monuments:
The Alaverdi Cathedral is the second highest cathedral after Tbilisi Sameba Cathedral. It was built by the Assyrian monk, Yoseb Amba in the sixth century. The present day cathedral dates back to the 11th century. The walls the cathedral is wrapped in were used as a shelter during invasions with tunnels that were hewn in the walls to connect people to the Alazani River and provide them with water. From here you can glimpse fantastic views of the Alazani river.
The next stop is the Ikalto Monastery Complex, which was built in the fifth century. It consists of three churches, the principal one Khvtaeba (eight - ninth century). In the 12th century, an academy was founded here, where the great Georgian writer, Shota Rustaveli studied. The remnants of the academy are still preserved.
The next site is Shuamta Monastery Complex. It is unique in the sense that the three churches set up here belong to different periods: sixth, seventh and eighth centuries and contribute to the diversity of the complex.
