Tips

Many interesting buildings were built during the reconstruction of Batumi. The Alphabet Tower is one of them. The tower is a tall structure with a glass sphere. It looks very unusual. First you can go up there and see Batumi from above. To do this you have to take two elevators. The entrance fee costs up to 10 GEL. On the second floor is the main observation deck. There is also a small playground on the third floor, but it is not so convenient to look from there. Secondly, the shape of the spiral tower is not straight. The idea was to make the tower look like a spiral of human DNA. The letters of the Georgian alphabet were placed on this spiral. This means that the alphabet is the DNA of the nation.

Beyond the Horizon

July 27, 2025

In the middle of Batumi's waterfront promenade, a structure stretches into the sky, oscillating somewhere between a space radar, a DNA double helix, and an LED art object: the Alphabet Tower. Anyone approaching the 130-meter-high steel giant must first orient themselves – and perhaps ask themselves: Is this art, science, or an oversized jumble of letters?

The tower is indeed a homage to the Georgian alphabet – one of the oldest and most independent writing systems in the world. The 33 illuminated letters spiral around the tower's skeleton, reminiscent of a DNA helix. A clear message: language and identity are inextricably linked. The fact that this message is presented here in neon and glass is typical of Batumi – a place that likes to make everything a bit more colorful, garish, and spectacular.

At the top of the tower is a glass sphere with an observation deck and – at least temporarily – a café. The elevator takes visitors comfortably to the top, but service is not guaranteed. Those who dare to climb (and are lucky with the opening times) will be rewarded with a magnificent panoramic view of the Black Sea coast, the promenade and the playful urban chaos of the city.
