Things to do in Tbilisi this weekend

Mtatsminda

Funicular up to a hilltop amusement park and the city's best panorama at sunset.

Old Tbilisi

Pushkin called them the best baths he'd ever taken — book a private chamber with massage.

Dinamo Stadium

Underground techno temple in an empty pool below the national stadium — Berlin-level lineups.

Marjanishvili

Soviet sewing factory turned design hostel, courtyard bars, indie shops and DJ nights.

Sighnaghi

1.5-hour drive into the 8,000-year-old qvevri wine region — cellar tours and supra lunches.

Old Tbilisi

Wooden-balcony houses and a cable car to the 4th-century fortress overlooking the river.

Heirloom Georgian · Plekhanov

Recipes from a 19th-century princess's cookbook — quiet candlelight, hand-painted walls.

Bistro / Café · Atoneli

Khinkali · Multiple

City's reference khinkali — order 5 mtiuluri (no herbs) and a Natakhtari beer.

Georgian · Sololaki

Bean-pot classic done refined — lobio, pkhali, freshly baked shoti bread.

Modern Georgian · Marjanishvili

Eclectic courtyard bistro — khachapuri, lamb chakapuli, qvevri wine list.
