Nice building

A museum city 20 kilometers from Tbilisi with a population of less than 8,000 people is one of the oldest in Georgia. Attractions: • Svetitskhoveli Cathedral • Samtavro Monastery • Pompey's Bridge • Antioch Church • Jvari Monastery • Bebristsikhe Fortress

Mtskheta is also home to the medieval Svetitskhoveli Cathedral ("Life-Giving Pillar"). According to legend, an angel helped erect the pillars of the oldest church built in the area. A robe of Christ ("Holy Robe") is venerated as its main relic. The current church, with galleries and a high dome on four massive pillars, was built between 1010 and 1029. For a long time, it was the burial place of the Georgian kings of the Bagratid dynasty. Destroyed by Timur Lenk, it was rebuilt in the 15th century (Wikipedia).

beautiful bike path along Batumi Boulevard

World Heritage Site, namely in an ensemble: the historic churches and monasteries. The Svetiskhoveli Cathedral was the former main and coronation church of Georgia (built in the 11th century). (Cross-domed church [the preferred construction principle here] means: cross as a floor plan, dome or cone on top.)

The former main church and seat of the Orthodox Patriarch in Tbilisi until it became the Sameba Cathedral.
