Abanotubani Sulphur Baths

The brick domes of the bath district, fed by the hot springs that gave Tbilisi its name.

“Tbili” means warm in Georgian — legend says the city was founded where King Vakhtang Gorgasali’s falcon fell into a hot spring.

Public and private rooms are available in several bathhouses. Private rooms are best booked ahead, especially in the evening.
