Mtskheta-Mtianeti

The terrain of Mtskheta-Mtianeti ranges from river valleys in its southern districts to glaciated Greater Caucasus peaks along the northern border, creating marked contrasts in climate and altitude. Mtskheta, at the meeting of the Aragvi and Mtkvari rivers, was an ancient capital of Georgia and remains known for Svetitskhoveli Cathedral and the Jvari Monastery, both part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. Farther north, the Georgian Military Road follows the Aragvi valley toward Stepantsminda beneath Mount Kazbek. Ananuri Fortress, above the Zhinvali Reservoir, recalls the region’s strategic role on this mountain route.
