My friends thought I went to Europe, but it was actually a small country in Asia.

This hidden gem in Central Asia boasts natural and architectural beauty that rivals Europe's. The small town of Sighnaghi, nestled between the Caucasus Mountains and the Black Sea, is particularly noteworthy for its historic architecture, breathtaking mountain views, and vibrant wine culture, earning it the nickname "Wine Country." Every photo captures a breathtaking European experience.
Planning to explore Sighnaghi? Here are eight helpful tips:
1. From Tbilisi, Georgia's capital, head to Samgori Bus Station and take a direct minibus for just 10 lari, a two-hour journey.
2. Although the town is small, it's easily accessible for a day trip. The last return bus departs at 6:00 PM, so simply return to the bus station promptly.
3. For a more in-depth exploration, we recommend staying overnight. Book a B&B in advance for excellent value; our triple room cost just 68 lari per night. 4. Key attractions include:
- Sighnaghi Viewpoint, a prime photo spot in town
- Sighnaghi National Museum, a museum to explore
- Sighnaghi Wall, a historic wall
- Sighnaghi St. George Basilica, a sacred church
5. Numerous cafés with terraces surround the wall, offering panoramic views and a relaxing atmosphere.
6. Bodbe's St. Nino's Convent is three kilometers from the town center, easily accessible by foot or taxi.
7. Visit Okro's Wine Restaurant & Cellar, located halfway up the mountain, for local cuisine and breathtaking views.
8. Wine tasting is a must-do in Sighnaghi. Wine is affordable, costing between 8 and 10 lari a glass. Don't forget to try the wine ice cream from Cafe Medea, which is only 7 lari and delicious!
