1Goderdzi Alpine Botanical Garden
After exploring the sea and tropical nature, move to the alpine zone of Ajara, toward the Alpine Botanical Garden of Goderdzi.
At an altitude of 2058 meters above sea level, 116 km away from Batumi and 6 km from Goderdzi Pass, a beautiful green lake is shimmering in a mixed forest. It is this dense forest and environment that gives the lake its bright green color.
Atop a steep cliff in the Khulo Municipality of Ajara stands the medieval fortress of Khikhani. While much of this historical building has fallen into ruins over the centuries, four towers, a church, the walls, a wine cellar, a well, and a tone oven still remain as a testament to the fortress’ existence.
One hundred kilometres from Batumi, in the Khulo Valley, you will find a unique example of medieval architecture and monumental art - Skhalta Monastery.
Preserved in its original form and considered to be the oldest standing monument in Ajara, it is a must-see while you’re enjoying the Black Sea coast.
Ajara is most famous for its seaside resorts, but the sea is not the only attraction in this beautiful region. The lush verdant mountains of the region are every bit as enchanting as the Black Sea.
The area of today's Khulo Municipality has been inhabited since the Bronze Age and acquired the name due to its vital role as a trading post. In ancient times, this settlement was called Khula, which meant "trading house". Located 85 kilometres from Batumi, its long history is represented by a number of fascinating historic monuments.

Have you ever wondered what it might be like to lay on your back and look up at the unspoiled beauty of the stars?
All this and more is waiting for you in Beshumi.
