Batumi
Batumi lies along Georgia’s Black Sea coast, where a low coastal plain meets the wooded foothills of the Lesser Caucasus. Capital of the Autonomous Republic of Adjara, it is Georgia’s principal Black Sea port and a long-established link between the country and maritime trade. Batumi Boulevard follows the waterfront, while the old centre retains late-19th- and early-20th-century streets beside a rapidly changing skyline. North of the city, Batumi Botanical Garden extends across the slopes of Green Cape above the coast. Port activity, broad public seafront spaces and new high-rise development give Batumi a distinctly contemporary role in western Georgia.

Batumi occupies a low coastal strip on the Black Sea in Georgia’s Autonomous Republic of Adjara. As Adjara’s capital, it is one of Georgia’s principal Black Sea ports, combining a working harbour with Batumi Boulevard, a long waterfront promenade established in the late 19th century. The compact old centre retains streets and façades shaped during the city’s period under the Russian Empire, while Europe Square and the Alphabetic Tower express a more contemporary civic identity. North of the city, Batumi Botanical Garden spreads over the coastal slopes at Mtsvane Kontskhi, with subtropical planting suited to the humid local climate.

Among the countries of the Caucasus, Georgia stands out for its ancient wine culture, expressed through qvevri—large clay vessels buried underground for fermentation. The Greater Caucasus forms its northern frontier, while the Black Sea borders the west; between them, valleys and plains support vineyards, farms and cities. Tbilisi, the capital, is known for its old quarter, sulphur baths and varied architecture. At Mtskheta, the former capital, Svetitskhoveli Cathedral is one of the country’s major Orthodox monuments. Georgian cuisine, from khachapuri to herb-led dishes, is central to everyday hospitality. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Georgia.
