  Stalin Museum

  The controversial museum in city center is built around the small house where Stalin was born and stands in high contrast to the rest of the town. The impressive palace, built as a glorifying memorial to the Soviet leader, still hosts the old propaganda exhibition and offers a true time traveling experience, as if going back to the Soviet times.

  Uplistsiche Cave Town

  Next stop is the abandoned rock hewn town of Uplistsikhe. The first settlement dates around 3000 years back and back then it was one of the largest and most important centers of pagan culture. Over the course of time Uplistsikhe lost its significance to Christian centers such as Mtskheta. But even today you can see the traces of former greatness - an amphitheater, various temples, a developed drainage system and even a pharmacy. The cave town still holds a mystery in it and it´s no wonder, that its ancient rocks and caves attract photographers and admirers from all over the world.
