Kutaisi: Chiatura-svævebaner og Katskhi-søjle-guidet tur
Beskrivelse
Tag en guidet tur fra Kutaisi for at udforske de skjulte perler i Imereti-regionen. Besøg Katskhi-søjlen, en 40 meter høj kalkstensmonolit med en kirke på toppen. Næste stop bliver minebyen Chiatura, engang nummer 1 inden for manganminedrift, og den var kendt for sit unikke svævebanesystem fra sovjettiden, som blev installeret i 1950'erne for at transportere minearbejdere og beboere op og ned ad de stejle bjergskråninger. Tro det eller ej, indtil i dag er svævebaner et af de vigtigste offentlige transportmidler for de lokale. De gamle svævebaner blev ændret til de nye, men du vil se nogle af de gamle svævebaner, alias "flyvende kister" hænge på de forladte linjer. Du vil tage en tur på en ny Chiatura gondollift og føle dig som en lokal i nogen tid. Du vil se sovjetiske monumenter og mosaikker spredt rundt i Chiatura og også se typiske sovjetiske boligbygninger. Efter en gåtur i Chiatura fortsætter du til Mghvimevi-klosteret, som er hugget i klippe. Om aftenen vender vi tilbage til Kutaisi.

Katskhi søjle er en spektakulær 40 m. høj rock med en kirke på toppen. Der er sjældent en chance for at gå op, da munk lever der permanent, selv hans brødre kommunikerer kun med ham ved at bringe mad og med hjælp fra reb. Du kan tage fantastiske billeder af søjlen på vejen eller fra parkeringspladsen. Der er dog en kirke og kloster på jordoverfladen. Så det er ikke et meget langt besøg, men absolut det værd.
Chiatura er en meget vigtig industriby i det vestlige Georgia, det er en af de vigtigste miner af mangan. Det er også yderst berømt for sine reb-svævebaner, som blev bygget i 50'erne som et transportmiddel for minearbejderne. Du skal en tur på en af de nye linjer.
Sammen med guiden går du en tur i Chiatura, nyder dens specifikke arkitektur, du går til en af de gamle svævebanestationer.
Besøg klosteret, som er hugget i klippe.

This was a great day tour, definitely recommend. The route was perfect- there was lots to see and explore without too much time spent traveling between locations. It was refreshingly slower-paced despite including many notable sights which was great because we saw a lot without feel rushed. Content consisted of a lovely mix between history, views, culture, and religion. We especially liked that this tour allowed us to see and appreciate many things that we wouldn’t have otherwise. Our guide was welcoming, approachable, attentive, and knowledgeable. Her driving was *excellent* and we felt fully safe and comfortable with her behind the wheel. We actually did 2 tours with Megobari and loved their overall vibe; while still very professional and organized, there was less of a “corporate” feel and more of a warm, personal feeling.
We enjoyed this day trip with different kinds of stops very much! It was a good mixture between landscapes, architecture and history (from soviet times as well as before). It was also very interactive, as we got to ride on the old and new cable cars of Chiatura. The tour guide was very kind and told us a lot of interesting facts about Georgia! Thank you!
We experienced with our guide Sandra a very interesting varied tour through the history and development of a mining industry town with a focus on the cable cars. It was an impressive tour.
I truly recommend this tour. Our guide Teona was amazing! She answered all our questions e tell us a lot of interesting facts about places. She is very appassionate, gentle and also a great fotographer :)
An interesting excursion that will appeal to fans of history, religion and technology, full of beautiful views. Guide knows what he's talking about. The small van we were travelling in was quite cramped (but the train to Chiatura is currently not running, so there is no choice). Keep in mind that you may get muddy, so choose appropriate clothing.
Very attentive guide, perfect to discover this little piece of paradise through the old cable car dating from the Soviet Union in particular
