Lonely Planet | Mount Kazbek

Finally checked off the Lonely Planet cover, the mountain monastery of Mount Kazbek. To be honest, the roads in the Caucasus Mountains are very winding, so be sure to bring motion sickness medicine in advance. I threw up many times along the way and almost couldn't take it anymore. The scenery is undeniably beautiful, but the wind on the mountain is very strong. I recommend bringing a windbreaker. Put it on at each scenic spot and take it off when you get back in the car because without the wind, it feels very hot.
