As part of a promotional campaign by the Georgian National Tourism Administration, the renowned French travel magazine Le Quotidien Du Tourisme has featured an in-depth article spotlighting Georgia as a captivating destination for international travelers.
In the article, the journalist paints a vivid picture of Georgia’s diverse natural landscapes—majestic mountains, lush forests, scenic hiking trails, horseback adventures, the stunning Martvili Canyon, and the breathtaking Kazbegi National Park among others.
“A guest in Georgia is sent by God,” the article begins, quoting a well-known Georgian proverb that captures the essence of the country's legendary hospitality. Located between the Caucasus Mountains and the Black Sea, Georgia’s unique geography and unspoiled nature make it an ideal destination for adventurers seeking dramatic scenery and authentic cultural encounters.
The article also explores Georgia's rich cultural heritage. Highlighted are iconic sites such as the ancient churches of Mtskheta and the Gelati Monastery—both recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Georgian polyphonic singing, inscribed on UNESCO’s list of Intangible Cultural Heritage, is noted as a reflection of the nation’s deep spiritual and artistic traditions.
Wine plays a central role in the feature. “Georgia is the birthplace of wine, with a winemaking history stretching back 8,000 years,” the journalist writes. “Each grape variety tells its own story, and winemaking in qvevris—large earthenware vessels—is an age-old technique honored by UNESCO.” With 29 protected wine regions and over 500 native grape varieties, Georgia offers an immersive experience for wine lovers, particularly in the famed vineyards of Kakheti.
The culinary section of the article delves into Georgia’s rich gastronomic culture, describing the traditional supra (feast), local dishes, and the warm sense of community shared around the Georgian table.
In conclusion, the journalist describes Georgia as “a safe and accessible country that welcomes visitors year-round.” Blending ancient traditions with modern flair, Georgia offers a rare combination of history, nature, and heartfelt hospitality that leaves a lasting impression.
