Description

This guide presents over 120 buildings and projects in the Georgian capital. It serves not only as a helpful guide for tourists but also as a documentation of the city's social history. The selection of buildings covers a broad spectrum of sights that are not only aesthetically interesting but also shed light on the city's historical developments. The book gives a comprehensive tour of the stylistic contrasts that enrich the city, filled with all manner of structures, from wooden homes to striking works of con-temporary architecture.
