Metekhi Church

Why go

Metekhi Church deserves attention because the church and equestrian monument occupy a cliff above the river, creating one of the clearest views back toward Old Tbilisi. The equestrian statue of King Vakhtang Gorgasali shares the terrace with the medieval church. The combination gives this particular visit a clear role in Tbilisi. Allow time for the exterior viewpoint even when worship or restoration limits interior access.
