DESCRIPTION:

When people ask me which country I've visited did I find surprising, overwhelmingly my answer is the Black Sea nation of Georgia, and the city of Batumi, specifically. Beautiful, eclectic, and as yet uncorrupted by chain stores and fast food restaurants, this little gem of eastern Europe/western Asia combines the majesty of the Russian empire, the utilitarianism of the Soviet Union and the forward modernism of its entry into the post Soviet world after 1991. And did I mention the wine? Georgia makes some of the best and most diverse types of wine in the world, with winemakers and little shops on nearly every street. Grapevines adorn buildings where in other cities ivy climbs the walls. The people are friendly and best of all, it is quite affordable.

Like many nations in the region, for many years it was part of the Russian Empire. Independence Day marks its freedom from that empire on May 26, 1919. Unfortunately, it was annexed by the Soviet Union in 1922 and endured communism until it again found freedom in 1991.

Since, the pretty little country has experienced civil unrest within, but for the past 10 years has found its ground and continues looking toward the future.
