🌿🌼🌻🌴Summer at Dadiani Palace.

The Dadiani Palace museum, established in 1840 by Prince of Mingrelia David Dadiani, is one of the oldest museums in Caucacus region.
🏰The Palace is located in town of Zugdidi - the administrative centre of very characteristic Samegrelo region.
👉Interesting! There are only four genuine death masks of Napoleon Bonapart known to exist – and one was housed in the museum of Dadiani Palace. Over the years experts said there were many stories of how the death mask might have arrived in Georgia. However according to the most popular version, this death mask of Napoleon was inherited by Napoleon’s nephew Achille Murat; the grandson of Caroline Bonaparte and Marshal Joachim Murat. When Napoleon’s nephew grew older, he married one of the daughters of the Dadiani family, the Princess of Samegrelo Salome Dadiani, moved to Georgia and brought with him all of his family relics.
🇬🇪🥳👏Georgia will open the borders from 1st July! Be first to visit!

🥖🥳This queue spotted today tells that it's the last day of the year! While women are preparing home and table for the New Years' Eve, men are waiting in queue from the early morning to buy fresh baked traditional Georgian bread. And so it's every 31st of December ❤️
🎄🎊Chichilaki is a Georgian traditional Christmas tree made from dried hazelnut or walnut branches that are shaved to form a small coniferous tree. The Georgians believe that the shaved tree resembles the famous beard of St. Basil the Great, who is thought to visit people during Christmas similar to the Santa Claus tradition. It is also believed that the chichilakis represent the tree of life, a symbol of hope for the Georgians ❤️

There are no rose petals, glasses of champagne, good video quality or other kind of luxury. Just song, voice, tears and two of them. (And, yeah, lots of friends - that's Georgia)

When I see you, the sun rises
Your voice soothes me
How can I say something bad to my destiny
When you are in this world.

Dalinamės mylimų keliautojų įspūdžiais:
Esame Jums labai dėkingos už puikiai suorganizuotą kelionę - ji net viršijo mūsų lūkesčius. Nuostabi gamta, puikus vairuotojas- gidas, gerai sudėlioti ekskursijų objektai leido mėgautis atostogomis ir net tą patį vakarą norėti su visais pasidalinti įspūdžiais. Labai geras variantas nedidelė grupė ir asmeninis gidas, nes tuomet susitaupo daug laiko stojant į kavinę, tualetą, susirenkant į nurodytą vietą, pasirenkant objektų apžiūrėjimo tempą; atsiranda galimybė sustoti išgelbėti ant kelio iškėblinusį vėžlį, patikrinti ar kylantis garas nuo druskingojo ežero kyla sūrus ar ne; papildomą kartą sustoti kavos, ar nusifotografuoti tiesiog patikusiame peizaže
Ačiū Jums už viską! Tokią kelionę galima rekomenduoti bet kam. Raminta, Aušra ir Lilija
