Historical Highlights
- Mtsvane Monastery (The Green Monastery) Tucked away in a dense forest, this 9th-century complex is officially named Chitakhevi St. George Monastery. It earned its famous nickname from the unique green tint of the stones used in its construction. It is a site of both immense beauty and quiet tragedy, preserving the memory of the monks who protected their faith during ancient invasions.
- Borjomi Central Park Established in the 1850s, this ecological park is the crown jewel of the region. Stretching along the Borjomula River, it offers a perfect blend of royal history and natural tranquility. The park is most famous for its Blue Pavilion, where visitors can drink the world-renowned Borjomi mineral water for free, just as the Russian Tsar’s family and famous aristocrats did over a century ago.
- Temple of Saint Seraphim of Sarov Perched on a quiet hill near the park, this temple is a site of deep spiritual significance. It features a unique replica of the Saint's forest cell, including a rock where he famously prayed for a thousand days and nights. Surrounded by towering pines, the atmosphere here is one of profound peace and reflection, making it one of the most beloved hidden gems of the region.
- The Open-Air Sulfur Pools Located at the end of a scenic 3km forest trail from the main park, these hot outdoor thermal baths offer a natural spa experience. The volcanic water maintains a temperature of about 32°C to 38°C year-round. These pools have been used for centuries for their healing properties, providing a relaxing escape in the heart of the wilderness.
