Driving from Tbilisi to David Gareja (just under 2 hours), you will see a completely different side of Kakheti – the steppe, red stone ridges and eagles will make you feel like you’re exploring a different country all together. David Gareji is a cave monastery complex, which still houses a few monks, was built in the 6th century. It consists of a lower and upper part. The lower part is easily accessible with a church, caves and beautiful views of red rocks around. The upper part is about a 40-60 minute hike up the mountain, but you’ll be rewarded with views over Azerbaijan and frescos from the 9th to the 14th century in caves.

Before the Trinity Cathedral was built in Tbilisi, Alaverdi was considered the highest one in Georgia. The monastery is surrounded by a high fortress wall, which gives the whole ensemble a majestic look. The temple has seen many hardships and invasions. It also survived the 18th-century earthquake.
