Visiting Georgia Tbilisi If you are planning to visit Tbilisi Georgia by exchange you might find these links helpful. Tbilisi is One of the Oldest Cities in the World Archaeological material shows us that the first settlements on the city's territory appeared in the eneolithic age, in the III-IV millennium. In the second half of the fifth century, by the order of the king of Kartli Vakhtang Gorgasali, the following construction of Tbilisi began with the purpose of making it the seat of the throne. The work commenced by Vakhtang Gorgasali was finished by his heir, Dachi. History has preserved for us an extraordinary story about the foundation of Tbilisi. Once upon a time Tbilisi and its surroundings were covered by forests, and Vakhtang Gorgasali was hunting there. The king and the members of his company made their pheasant fly, and the falcon chased the pheasant until soon both the birds disappeared from sight. After a long search the king and his company saw that both birds had fallen into a hot sulphur spring. There were many such medical springs in that territory. The king Vakhtang liked this area and decided to build a city in the area. He named it Tbilisi because of those hot springs. The Modern Tbilisi On the 27th of April Georgia became an equal member of the European Union. This fact has equalized the international situation of Georgia. In November 2003 the general disorder led to the change of government which later became known in history as "the Rose Revolution." It was the end of the post-Soviet epoch and the beginning of the creation of the new democratic epoch. This led to a series of similar kinds of bloodless revolutions in the former Soviet countries.
