Considered one of the most sacred places in all of Georgia, the Jvari Monastery is a medieval Georgian Orthodox monastery outside the small city of Mtskheta. Stone carvings decorate the interior of this UNESCO World Heritage Site from the 7th century, while its hilltop position provides views over the meeting of Mtkvari and Aragvi rivers.
What an amazing time! Ilona and her driver were the best hosts and the perfect companions to explore Georgia with. Just enough time to explore the highlights. Added bonus, the road trip home turned into a "magic" disco!
