Description

Someday I will surely write here about myself, but in the meantime I invite you to meet me in person — to learn not only the history of the old Tbilisi houses, but also a bit about my ancestors.
This excursion is experimental. I’ve updated the route, added new locations, and shortened the format. We’ll have an express walk of only 2 hours instead of the usual five, so you won’t get tired and afterward you can try something new — for example, creativity.

My acquaintance is leading a candle‑painting masterclass for the first time, and I am happy to support people in their creative beginnings. It’s a great way to relax, chat in a cozy atmosphere inspired by the grand facades after the walk, and make a gift for yourself or a loved one by hand.
Often after a walk participants feel an invisible thread keeps them together. It’s like you’ve just met, and already it’s time to part ways, but you don’t want to. That’s why I decided to combine the walk and creativity into one warm autumn day.

Location

Tbilisi

Tbilisi, Georgia

Tbilisi is the capital and the largest city of Georgia, lying on the banks of the Kura River with a population of around 1.2 million people. Tbilisi was founded in the fifth century AD by Vakhtang I of Iberia, and since then has served as the capital of various Georgian kingdoms and republics. Because of its location at the crossroads between Europe and Asia, and its proximity to the lucrative Silk Road, throughout history, Tbilisi has been a point of contention among various global powers. To this day, the city's location ensures its position as an important transit route for energy and trade projects. Tbilisi's history is reflected in its architecture, which is a mix of medieval, neoclassical, Beaux Arts, Art Nouveau, Stalinist, and Modern structures. Historically, Tbilisi has been home to people of multiple cultural, ethnic, and religious backgrounds, though its population is overwhelmingly Eastern Orthodox Christian.
