Euronews, in cooperation with the Department of Tourism and Resorts of Adjara, has published an extensive article for travel enthusiasts about Adjara's monuments included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, legendary Georgian hospitality and Batumi's futuristic architecture.
"The capital of the Ajara region is Georgia’s second city Batumi. It’s a vibrant city with a mix of old-world charm and modernity.
The history of the city dates back to ancient times and is mentioned in the works of the Greek philosopher Aristotle.
During the 19th century, it became a port of international importance on the Black Sea. It was during the late 19th century that the famous Boulevard was built. It runs for seven kilometres next to the sea and provides a green space for walking, cycling and jogging.
Over the last ten to fifteen years, the city has been transformed with modern high-rise buildings and futuristic architecture.
Georgia’s Ajara region lies along the Black Sea Coast. Historically it’s been a crossroads of civilisations, where Europe meets Asia.
In this episode of Explore, we experience its rich culture and legendary hospitality, visit Georgia’s second city Batumi with its mix of ancient history and futuristic architecture and explore the region’s stunning nature which lies just outside the city.
Georgian wine-making dates back 8,000 years and is recognised by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
The wine is stored and aged in a Qvevri, an earthenware jar, and guests are honoured with the ancient ritual of opening the Qvevri before a supra," - Euronews writes.
Euronews considers folk music as an important part of Georgian hospitality. The publication also notes that the polyphonic song was recognized by UNESCO as a masterpiece of intangible heritage.
