15 Best Things to Do and See in Georgia (Updated 2025)

"Climbing up to Jvari Monastery on the hilltop above Mtskheta—the site most famous for Christianity being declared the official religion in 319 CE—rewards you with stunning views over the town and the two rivers that meet there; the monastery itself dates to the sixth century and remains remarkably intact." - Matthew Kepnes
