And now a little about the capital. Tbilisi - Ancient Tiflis on the banks of the Mtkvari River, the capital of Georgia, its cultural, economic and political center, and an insanely interesting and diverse city. "Tbilis" means "warm" in Georgian. Tbilisi was based on hot sulfur springs. According to legend, which is so popular with local people, once King Vakhtang Gorgasali set out on falconry, his bird rushed after a pheasant trying to escape in the pond, and both immediately cooked in a hot spring. Toli the inconsolable tsar decided to immortalize in the history of his favorite falcon, the toli was impressed by the rising fetid steam, but Tbilisi originated here. Today, terracotta dome baths adjoin modern business centers, but the spirit of old Tbilisi still hangs over all this.
Acquaintance with the city will begin with the Cathedral "Sameba" - a symbol of the Georgian revival, unity and immortality. It rises in the center of Tbilisi on the top of Mount St. Ilia. "Sameba" in Russian means "Holy Trinity"
Then the transition to the monument to the founder of the city of Tbilisi, the great Georgian ruler Vakhtang Gorgasali. Gorgasali is a nickname, so the king was called in the war (Du Daz Gorgasali) and means "be more careful with a man with a wolf's head."
