MTV: Tbilisi, Possibly the Coolest City in the World

Through its diversity and multiplicity of attractions, the Georgian capital has caught the eye of yet another international media platform MTV. Rosie Needham has recently published a thorough article about Tbilisi, introducing the best spots of the city and the reasons for visiting the historic capital of Georgia to wider audiences.

“When it comes to Tbilisi it’s safe to say the secret’s out,” she starts. “The capital of Georgia has been charming worldwide travelers with its alternative arts scene, world-class clubs and unforgettable cuisine for a while now - and it’s undoubtedly becoming one of the trendiest cities in Europe.”

Needham goes on to brief about Tbilisi, outlining the most popular go-to destinations for youngsters, as well as the representatives of the older generations, and compares the Eastern European city with Berlin.

“Like Berlin, raving is central to younger Georgians’ identity with techno music being the soundtrack to those seeking social liberty and cultural freedom. The underground club Bassiani is a concrete Mecca for techno; the main dance floor is a disused swimming pool and at weekends it’s flooded with smokey, Chacha fuelled clubbers dancing to promising Georgian DJs. Bassiani has sparked the question - could Tbilisi be the new Berlin?”

Finally, the author presents a must-do list that would help the travelers to discover Tbilisi in the very best way and spend a pleasant time.
