Vardzia
**Vardzia** is a spectacular cave city in southern Georgia, carved into the slopes of the Erusheti Mountains in the 12th century during the reign of Queen Tamar. Originally built as a fortress and later expanded into a monastery, it once housed up to 6,000 monks and included over 600 rooms, churches, tunnels, and even a pharmacy. The centerpiece is the **Church of the Dormition**, decorated with remarkable frescoes that have survived for centuries. Perched above the Mtkvari River valley, Vardzia is both a masterpiece of medieval engineering and a symbol of Georgia’s Golden Age.
