Vani

The excavation site. Remains of fortifications and temples, locally produced and imported Greek pottery, and sophisticated local goldwork—now on display at the Vani Archaeological Museum and the Museum of Georgia in Tbilisi—indicate that Vani was a vibrant urban settlement from the 8th century down to the mid-1st century BC.

The archaeological museum is on a hill about 2 km outside the center. If you don't want to walk, you can take a taxi.

In the family home of the two poets in the village of Tktschwischi, personal items as well as sculptures and paintings by other Georgian artists are shown.
