It is said that before writing The Lord of the Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien visited Vardzia. Don't expect too much and a super large variety of views. But the very fact that and how it was there, with visual contact, can activate your secret rooms in the halls of the mind. It's very cool to imagine what it was like in that place back then. If you're passing by, I recommend going!

It's a sooo beautiful place. There are many places where you can get water. Take a bottle with you. Parking at the entrance to the shade and beyond is large, also free. He himself pays 15 lari. You will rise from the left and go down to the bottom of the mountain on the right, then return along the path. Staff, nice people.

Oh well, definitely a cool place to visit. However, someone has done some business in the caves and these are not ancient cargoes. You can even climb under a bottle of wine like Mowgli.

An indescribable feeling! But there is one thing, you need to walk there in sports shoes, and not have excess weight. A stout person simply will not fit into passages with steep stairs.

The rocky monastery town. It's very interesting, but it's important to get in good weather.

A large number of rooms are available. There are handrails and stairs everywhere. The church with the original painting. An active source of drinking water. My family and I spent more than half a day there as we explored everything that was available.

A wonderful monument, a historical place. It's amazing in scale, even though most of the city is lost. When I visit Georgia, I try to come here.

A very interesting place, I recommend to visit, but only for people with a healthy musculoskeletal system (there are many descents and ascents of stairs to be overcome). Although we had a group of elderly Americans with us, they staggered on the steps, but stubbornly climbed up

Crazy beauty. If you 're afraid of heights , don 't even climb 😂 But the security is very weak, sometimes even zero. Although I personally saw 70+ grandmothers jumping on these mountains and steps. 😅

It's a great place. It's true that we were without an excursion, but it's also interesting. You do not need to take a minibus to the place, since it is very close to go from the parking lot. I recommend it!

One star only because of the steps and for more people to read the review! 1) There are a lot of steps! Especially at the end of the road. 2) There are handrails not everywhere. 3) Some steps are cramped and because of which you can slip. 4) In places, you have to move down the steps (and not only). And at the end of the way, you collect combos: you walk bent over the cramped steps without handrails and the only thing you will grab when falling is a 220V wire. And we also got caught in the rain. Excursion: we took a guided tour in Russian. Verdict: if everything is OK with your knees, you will most likely like it. The views are beautiful.

An interesting historical place. It is unusual to plunge into ancient times and feel how the monks lived in the stone city. Excursions are conducted in different languages, you just need to wait for the right guide. If you are interested in this place, it is worth visiting the stone town of Uplistsikhe!

The impressions do not differ from those described many times. Advice for those who are not too trained: do not go into the narrow passage starting to the left of the temple. A short staircase leads to it. The ascent and descent are very difficult. There are many steps missing on the descent

A beautiful historical place. There is a parking lot, a toilet, a mini cafe and shops at the entrance. You will have to walk a lot because there are many different caves at different heights. There are internal tunnels, a monastery and beautiful views opposite.

An ancient rock city of amazing beauty. You can walk for hours, marveling at the skill of ancient masters. There is still a church in the rock. The views opening from the walls of the city are etched into the memory for a lifetime! There is a parking lot, a gift shop, and a cafe downstairs. One of those places that is definitely worth visiting in Georgia.

It's a cool place! I recommend a full examination. We were with children from 15 to 3 years old. There are some pretty weird places. If you are afraid of heights or have claustrophobia, warn the guide about it and move with caution. There are drinking fountains on the top. I highly do not recommend the restaurant downstairs. Nice view on the veranda above the river BUT! Disgusting kitchen. This is the worst restaurant in Georgia in 15 years of visiting this country. It's ugly and not tasty + you will RECEIVE a 25% tip.
