Georgia 🇬🇪: A must-see destination In Georgia, ancient churches stand in contrast to towering snow-capped mountains. The Gergeti Trinity Church in Kazbegi, resembling a city in the sky, speaks of millennia of faith. Step into Georgia and wander through the old town of Tbilisi. Stone roads, colorful buildings, and the chime of church bells intertwine, each step like stepping into an ancient poem. Georgia is a culinary adventure. The rich cheese of Khachapuri, the flavorful broth of Khinkali, every bite is a tribute to gastronomy. Here's an introduction to Georgia: Save it now! Overview - Location: Situated in the central-western part of the South Caucasus, bordering Russia to the north, Azerbaijan and Armenia to the southeast and south, Türkiye to the southwest, and the Black Sea to the west. - Climate: Subtropical oceanic climate, with an average temperature of 3–7°C in January and 23–26°C in August. - Language and Ethnicity: The main ethnic group is Georgian. The official language is Georgian, and many residents also speak Russian. Natural Landscapes - Mount Kazbek: One of the highest peaks in the Greater Caucasus mountain range, a dormant double-coned volcano with glaciers on its upper slopes and meadows on its lower slopes. The Gergeti Trinity Church stands alone on the mountain. - Ananuri Castle: Featured on the cover of Lonely Planet's *Georgia*, it offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains and the emerald-green lake below. - Ushguli: Located in the snowy wonderland of Mestia, surrounded by the Caucasus Mountains, it is one of the highest settlements in Europe. Cultural Attractions - Tbilisi Old Town: The heart of Tbilisi, the capital, with numerous ancient buildings, churches, and narrow streets, offering a rich historical atmosphere. - Stalin Museum: Located in Gori, Stalin's birthplace, it showcases Stalin's life, related artifacts, and historical materials. - Chronicle of Georgia: Composed of 16 bronze pillars, each 35 meters high, with reliefs depicting different stories. Food Recommendations - Khachapuri: Soft bread topped with melted cheese, butter, and a runny egg yolk. - Khinkali: Beef dumplings filled with flavorful broth. Eat them by holding the top knot, taking a bite, and sucking out the broth. - Chakhokhbili: Poultry slow-cooked and served with a tomato and vegetable stew. Travel Tips - Visa: Chinese citizens holding valid ordinary passports can stay for a single period of no more than 30 days, and no more than 90 days cumulatively within every 180-day period, without a visa. - Transportation: Direct flights are available from Ürümqi to Tbilisi. Within Georgia, you can travel between cities by bus or train. Renting a car is also a good option for independent travel. - Currency: The Georgian currency is the Lari. Credit cards are accepted in some places, but it's recommended to have cash on hand, especially in small shops and markets.
