fuck off.

Old town, botanical garden and Nariqala plus Tsminda Sameba on day one. Day two some museums if that's your thing. Alternatively Gori and Uplistsikhe (sp?). Day three Davit Gareji - daily marshrutka from Pushkin square for 25GEL return. Search on fb.

Oh, Dry Bridge Market is also neat. Go bar hopping at night if you like. Clubs are a bit seedy often, but good times if you like that bit of grit. Truth be told, there isn't that much to do in Tbilisi.

Its not that, its the fact I am trying to pick 3 nights between Tbilisi or Minsk and I think Tbilisi will be better, although I will admit I am basing about 80% of that off of the fact that I love Georgian food.

Tbilisi at least has something to see, if not much. Minsk has nothing. And the food is shit.
>>1213236
This. So true.

Tblisi was the worst part of Georgia when I was there.
David Gareji is worth the trip, and do the walkaround mini trail, but that is NOT Tblisi, know that much.
okay
some places are worth checking out,
Old town (Narikala Fortress)
Georgian National Museum (closed on mondays)
Dry Bridge Market
Hotel Rooms Tbilisi (this place is great, amazing restaurant/bar but don't expect Georgian food there)
if you like night clubs arrange your days so that you'll be there on friday, go to Bassiani.
most of other places worth visiting are outside of Tbilisi i think
Good things I recall about Tblisi:
Cheap & well managed subway system.
Friendly locals will tell you where you are (if lost).
Note: If you understand Russian with a HEAVY Georgian accent. Which can sound like accentuated vowels in a row, with no clear message.

that's true about elders, most of the young people speak English very well though
>>1213559
True, and it seemed everyone who could speak English definitely tried to get by with it, instead of switching to Russian - but for some reason whenever I needed directions (say to find the marshrutka to Sighnagi) there were only elderly chaps around.
But cannot emphasize it enough - stand around for 15 seconds looking confused and someone will try and help you find your bearings.
One thing I also liked - everyone seemed to have a neighbour who could do what was needed. Or a cousin.
Marshrutka to Tblisi is full? No problem, my neighbour is driving there by car, he leaves in 5 minutes, here he is, get in.
