Multicultural Georgia

Once upon a time, this street was part of an ancient caravan road. The architecture here tells the story of how people used to live in Tbilisi. The street, which was once a place for artisans and merchants, now plays the role of an important historical and cultural centre.

Kote Apkhazi Street is a microcosm of the real Georgia: a diverse and multicultural place of friendship and co-existence. Proof of this is the fact that on this street there are houses of worship of many faiths standing side-by-side.
