The view of the small town of Mestia with the snow-capped peaks in the background is a great photo opportunity. The many former defense towers served to defend family associations or as a refuge in the event of an attack or as watchtowers. In the light of the rising or setting sun, but also wrapped in clouds of fog, I love this unique architecture.
