Telavi Essentials

Telavi serves as the gateway to Georgia's premier wine region, Kakheti. The city center features the medieval fortress of King Erekle II and a 900-year-old plane tree. Nearby, the Alaverdi Monastery and Dzveli Shuamta complex showcase early Christian architecture dating back to the 5th century. The Tsinandali Estate of Alexander Chavchavadze offers a glimpse into 19th-century aristocratic life and the modernization of Georgian winemaking. Scenic views are accessible via the 1,620-meter Gombori Pass, which links the region to Tbilisi.
