Black and white river

#momentsmission #georgia #unforgettableexperiences #travelinspiration This river is a true #naturalwonders . The uniqueness of it is in its color. It’s truly black and white (or more dark blue and light blue). And the difference is clearly visible. This is the place where 2 rivers meet and flow as one but they don’t blend. And of course such an amazing place has a beautiful legend in the best traditions of Shakespeare. There once lived two sisters: one with dark hair, the other one with fair hair. And they both fell in love with the same man. That situation resulted in a tragedy but it also laid a foundation of a beautiful but sad story. Definitely worth visiting and seeing it with your own eyes. Unfortunately the camera cannot capture the beauty of it to the full extent.

Fluffy friends of Ananuri Fortress

#hiking #fortress #castle #georgia A beautiful fortified castle situated on the uphill, with a magnificent view of Zhinvali reservoir is definitely worth visiting. The castle is interesting to research and you may walk around finding new places and tunnels. The castle was once a shelter for refugees and was named after Ana from Nuri, who didn’t give away the location of the shelter to the enemies. You can still feel the atmosphere of the older days there. I enjoyed climbing the walls and walking through passage ways imagining how people lived there. Now you can find a lot of cats and dogs there that are just laying in the sun or play with each other or the visitors. They are taken care of and these fluffy friends definitely play their roles in attracting visitors.

Very good service, perfect view, reception very kindly, good speck English, good room, good breakfast, good dinner. Really very perfect, I like it.❤️❤️

Zhinvali pass

Zhinvali was one and a half hour from Tbilisi. It was on the way to Kazbegi and Gudauri. It was not a must-go attraction, but if you are going to Ananuri anyway stopping by would not take much time. It was pretty much a dam but the view was absolutely gorgeous. The big mountains and clear green water were two perfect combination. There are many photos spots, some you have to pay to take pictures. I recommend to go to the free ones since the views were pretty much the same. Entrance fee: free Parking: available
