Wine country, Sighnaghi.

Saignon, the world-famous wine region. Pink houses, flat pebble roads, vintage old buildings... everywhere here is filled with a romantic atmosphere. From the small town, you can also overlook the vast Alpilles mountains. This small town, described by "Lonely Planet" as very beautiful in the Kakheti region, has a history dating back to the second half of the 18th century. Sighnaghi was built by a capable ruler of Georgia in the 18th century. The purpose of construction was to protect the locals from raids by the Caucasus mountain people and to attract Armenian merchants and artisans to promote the economy of Georgia. Today, most of the ancient city walls and 23 towers are still preserved. 📍Transportation: Take the subway to Samgori station in the city center, the subway fare is 0.5 lari. After getting off the subway, walk through the underground passage to the bus station, where you can ask locals for the specific boarding location. Then take a mini-bus to reach Sighnaghi, the fare is 7 lari and the journey takes about 2 hours. 📝Sig Nagi's last bus back to Tbilisi city center is at 6pm, don't miss the return time, buddies. 🧗‍♂️Seginaggi can play Jungle Leap, and the cost is 50 Lari per time. ⛪️If you want to go to Bodbe Monastery, you can choose to rent a 4-wheel drive or motorcycle in the town and drive there, or you can walk there, which takes about 40 minutes to the church. However, single women are not recommended to walk because there are basically no people on the road.
