The first temple on this place was built by Gorgosali the great. The Arabs destroyed the first temple. Then the temple was repeatedly destroyed and restored until it gets a modern look at the end of the 18th century. The Tbilisi Theological Academy is also located here. The bell tower opposite was built in the traditional Russian style after the establishment of the Russian regime in Georgia in 1812.
This day in Tbilisi was unexpected and unusual. It started outside the city, with a horse farm on the Tbilisi Reservoir. It is impossible to understand and feel Georgia and Tbilisi without seeing a Georgian on a horse. From there, the path ran to the Bridge Peace, the cable car, the fortress of Narikala and the old town, the marvelous sulfur waterfall and the fig gorge and of course to the royal baths. After the rest, we walked the streets of the ancient city of the Meydan district, the streets of Sioni and the Church of Sion and ended the day with a beautiful boat ride through the Kura River. It was an incredible adventure!
