      Great Monastery to visit, very interesting spot, the grave of the first Georgian king David who united the Georgians, the academy, the chapel, the monastery itself. The road is a little windy with great views!

      Gorgeous monastery on a hilltop with great views over Kutaisi. Monastery recently reconstructed to its former glory. I only minded that huge brown addition to the main complex, what where they thinking? It doesn't fit there at all. At least it's not visible from all sides...

      The Monastery is surrounded by the spectacular mountains and the landscape is actually impressive. It is very interesting and mystical place. So if you will be in Kutaisi you should visit this place.

      Monastery and it's sorroundings makes great impression, fresques from XII century are so amazing that I think I won't forget it for my whole life.

      Nice monastery, nice view, we weren’t that impressed but we weren’t disappointed eitherPay attention, the entrance to the complex is very slippery…

      This is an important site, part of Georgia (and world) heritage. The painted walls in the cathedral are also interesting to see. Hope the restoration work will be finished soon,

      I think it is my duty to come to this place. Here it was that David the Builder established perhaps the first University in the World. For one thing he chose an Amazing site for it. Just the view gives you a new way of looking at the world. The buildings are wonderful to be in . The Frescoes are treasures in their own right. To the right of the door as you leave , is the scene of Herod washing his hands of the case of the Nazarene. It is just one of meany masterpieces Christ is being led by a rope around his neck . Herod is dressed in Mongol robes. There are so many lessons for the critical observer that they overwhelm you. Here they taught the Trivium and the Quadrivium. I felt inspired by the effort that has been expended here and spread out across the World.

      Made famous by David the Builder this 12th century Monastery was the burial place of Georgian rulers. The church is decorated with some nice frescos, mosaics and enamel work. Monastery is perched on a hill among the fields and cows.

      This Monastery is in our opinion, one of the best (if not the best) we have seen in Georgia. To visit this place you can stay in Kutaisi and pay 20-30 Lari to visit the Monastery with a Taxi or stay close to Gelati. It is only 20min in a taxi. The place dated of the 1080 a.d. And part of the world heritage is quite well preserved but still keeping the essence of the original. Next to the Monastery there is a little church and the academy (totally rebuilt except the walls). Inside the main building try to get into the black door on your left after the entrance, interesting hidden room, still to be repaired. Also there is another room behind a red piece a fabric in one of the sides (straight and left after entrance). Leaving this building, turn to the left and go straight until the kind of wall door. You can see a very unique and very old iron door. Check the roof style of the whole complex. Enjoy it!
