Near the square are also located the Central Bank, the Marriott Hotel, and the famous old Tbilisi, where you will have a great opportunity to take a walk, buy souvenirs, and enjoy a tasty lunch in a Georgian restaurant.
- After lunch, we will walk to explore the newly constructed Bridge of Peace, built over the great Kura River.
