Gelati Monastery

The real highlight of Kutaisi though was only to come now – Gelati Monastery (გელათის მონასტერი).

Gelati Monastery goes back to the year 1106, is considered a masterpiece of the Georgian Golden Age; its inside features many colorful murals and frescoes.

We had the usual tour around the churches – and also got a chance, to get in the views over the valley in front of us.
