This map guide is your key to unlocking the eclectic charm and artistic spirit of Georgia's capital city! Vegan punk cafes, revitalized old buildings turned artistic spaces, funky vintage shops, vibrant food & art scenes! Wondering where you can visit a spunky Russian art house cafe that has pet ducks? Where you can find an authentic family owned Japanese bakery that makes flour pastry art and shapes their bread as little people?

Discover my collection of tightly edited places to eat, stay, and play in my current hometown, Tbilisi. This city guide spotlights industrial-chic hotels, hip co-working spaces, urban cafes, cutting-edge art spaces, a hole-in-the-wall marionette theater, and those elusive, off-the-grid experiences that make a city come alive. Georgia is a place where the old and the new, the real and surreal, all unite in a singular manner — in its art, streets, politics, and way of life. The country is full of whimsy, warmth, and magic, and yet, despite its old-world appeal, Georgia is buzzing with newfound vigor and vitality, having long since shed its Soviet shackles. And nowhere is this energy more palpable than in Tbilisi, the heart and soul of Georgia. Our Tbilisi guide includes a link to a curated map with all the recommended places to eat, play, and stay.
