Mtskheta & Jvari: Georgia’s Sacred Heartbeat – Where Christianity Took Root
Just 20 km from Tbilisi lies Mtskheta, Georgia’s ancient capital and spiritual epicenter. This UNESCO World Heritage town is home to two of the most revered sites in Georgian Christianity:
- Jvari Monastery (6th century): Perched atop a hill, this cross-shaped church marks the spot where St. Nino planted the first Christian cross in Georgia. Its panoramic views over the confluence of the Mtkvari and Aragvi rivers are breathtaking
- Svetitskhoveli Cathedral (11th century): Known as the "Living Pillar," this cathedral is believed to house Christ’s mantle and is a major pilgrimage site. Its grand architecture and historical significance make it a must-see.
