Georgia's off-the-beaten-path attraction, the Shavnabada Monastery.

May Day travel destination recommendation: Saint Nino Monastery in Georgia. St. Nino is the saint who led Georgia to convert to Christianity. It is said that this is the place where she was buried. From the town of Sigunaji to the monastery, it takes about an hour to walk (don't ask me how I know 😂). There are motorcycles and four-wheel drive vehicles for rent in the town, about 10 lari. It is recommended to rent a car to go there. Don't be like me, foolishly hiking up the mountain alone to save money 💰, and end up not seeing a single person along the way. Honestly, it was a bit scary. 🤩There are some small vendors selling handmade bags, hats, carpets and other handicrafts at the entrance of the monastery. If you need them, you can buy some. 💰Ticket: Free 🚃Transportation: Google search "Bodbe Monastery for Women" for navigation.
