The city of Poti, in fact, is not a resort town. This is a city-port, a city in which some production is concentrated, there are many educational institutions in which children who live in the nearby resort towns of Ureki, Kobuleti. For tourists there are few attractive places. The whole city can be bypassed for the minimum amount of time. Transport services can not be used. Perhaps the main attraction is the Cathedral, a local museum can attract with its exposition. What else to see, well, it is possible a port, the port part of the Poti, and more to go especially nowhere. It was the port and caused that the Poti is not rubbed as a spa town. If you are traveling with children, the most optimal holiday destination will be the village of Ureki with famous black magnetic sand. And the sea here is clean, the bottom of the hollow. Children here is just a sea paradise. If you still had for some reason to stay in Poti, but I would not just want to hold a passive rest, but see interesting and iconic places of Georgia, I recommend to make excursion tours in two directions - towards Batumi, which is literally minutes in 50- 60 from Poti by car, or in the opposite side - Kutaisi. The duration of the path in the second direction will take about 2.5 hours. For the passage to pay 10 Lari per person, but it will be possible to see the monuments of the ancient Colchis.
Batumi boldly take children. For them, the mass of entertainment on the territory of the seaside boulevard. These are parks, attractions. For 20 LARs, you can travel on a small boat along the shores of Batumi and see all the charms of the city from the deck, or use the services of a tourist bus and approximately the same cost to drive around the city and hear the story of the guide about the most famous sights.
For tourists, Batumi is a seaside boulevard. You can see a modern architecture monument known as Nino and Ali (either "love"). Its image is almost on all souvenir products of Adjara. Two huge figures created from a large amount of metal sections, then converge, then diverge. When theroid is designed, they seek each other. Next to this composition is the wheel of the ferris, and immediately close to the Basha Georgian Chaqi and the Tower of the Georgian alphabet, which is marked with a ball, and all the letters of the alphabet are arranged on spirals that are immimizing the gene.
Locals say that during the construction of the tower, the Turkish workers confused the sequence of letters and had to rebuild everything. Therefore, the tower cost a decent amount. On the territory of the boulevard, a lot of cafes and restaurants, where for 10 LAR you can try the famous Adjara Khachapuri in the form of a boat on the type of the famous boat of Argonauts, as well as Hinkali. The cost of 1 piece is about 0.7 LAR, the minimum order is 5 pieces. For two, if you certainly do not differ in the Worovsim appetite, one khachapuri and a flip of chinki pieces will be more than enough. Everything is very satisfying. For a walk through the seaside boulevard you can spend all day. Under the length, this boulevard will soon be released in the first place in Europe. His construction is still continuing. In the evening, do not miss the opportunity to see the famous singing fountains.
In Batumi will have to walk long, but it is worth it. See all the charms of this resort town. Children will be interested in visiting stationary dolphinarium. Prediations here spend twice a day at 12 and 17 hours. Before the trip, it is worth clarifying the mode of operation, because if it is too hot, or on the contrary, the rain can be canceled.
Traveling in the second direction towards Kutaisi, you will certainly be worth seeing famous monastery complexes dating from 10-11 centuries and are now the objects of the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage. This is the Bagrat Temple, which is right in the city of Kutaisi on its sublime part. You can go there on foot, or by taxi for 3-4 Lara. In Dali from the city at about an hour's ride, Gelati and Mozymete is located. These two temple Christian complexes are associated with the name of David Builder, who united all the peoples of Georgia and made it a state famous in the world.
The monument to David the builder can be seen directly opposite the station building in Kutaisi, previously he was located on another square opposite the building of the local theater, but now there is a Kolkhidsky fountain. It is also worth seeing it. This is the most expensive fountain of Georgia. He was created cascading and decorated with gold-plated animal figures, the remains of which were found on the territory of Collid. A very impressive spectacle, especially under the illumination at night.
Gelati is the place where the time remained. Being in the territory of Gelati, dating from the 11th century, you will see the traditional architectural church ensemble for Georgia. His construction began David himself.
It was he who laid the first stone. It is also buried in Gelati in the main gate. His tombstone with sayings in the Starogruzinsky language about what exactly here he found peace, lies right at the entrance. Everyone who steps to Gelacy's territory must come to the foot on the stove. So he won David, thereby he will know that his people are alive. True, now the main gate has lost their original status. The entrance due to natural changes is from the opposite side.
Another monastery is Mozamete. He and Gelati are connected by an underground transition, which, of course, is closed for tourists. Mozymette, that in translation means Muchenic, erected in honor of the two brothers David and Konstantin, who, with honor and dotability, carried all torture of enemies.
Both temples have unique frescoes. The spirit of ancient Georgia reigns here, which is the second country adopting Christianity. Visiting these places will be particularly memorable. You can buy icons with the lips of saints. The cost is about 5-6 LAR.
Famille in Kutaisi with visits to the temples of Bagrat, Gelati and Mozymette can be organized independently, or buy directly in Poti or Batumi Tour. The cost of a one-day tour per person will be about 70 LAR. You can buy in any tourist firm of the city. No one is deceiving.
