Narikala Fortress

Why go

Narikala Fortress deserves attention because ruined walls above the old city reveal successive fortification layers and broad views across the Mtkvari valley. Most visible walls date from later rebuilding, while St Nicholas Church occupies the upper enclosure. The combination gives this particular visit a clear role in Tbilisi. Use firm footwear and avoid exposed walls in poor weather; the climb is part of the visit.
