Mtskheta and Uplistsikhe - the genetic code of Georgians.

Statehood, which originated at the junction of the two greatest ancient empires of Persia and Byzantium. The pure spirit of Christianity that penetrated here in the first years after the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. We go to the ancient stones of Mtskheta and the remains of the cave city Uplistsikhe, which is already 3000 years old ...

The history of the Georgian kingdom, its valiant people, betrayal of the weak in spirit, the greatness of wise rulers, fire, earthquakes, the clatter of military armor, the rustle of dress hems. This breath of past times, which has hardened the courage of the people for centuries, upholding faith and spirituality, is all that carries the genetic code of Georgians.
