Tbilisi is an exhilarating jumble of ancient architecture alive with a vibrant culture.
As the capital of the Republic of Georgia, Tbilisi is the country's largest city. Situated near the Silk Road, Tbilisi has long been important in world history. Today the city showcases medieval, neoclassical, Art Nouveau, modern, and Stalinist architecture.
With its past steeped in multiculturalism, tourists can explore time periods encompassing Soviet rule and Georgian independence. Old Town Tbilisi offers local art, wine houses, and family restaurants. Local cafes serve traditional khachapuri bread alongside meat dumplings called khinkali.
After luxuriating in a sulfur bath, cross the famous Dry Bridge. Explore the Holy Trinity Cathedral, the third largest Orthodox cathedral in the world. A funicular ride to Mtatsminda Park keeps kids engaged while adults enjoy the view. Visit Kartlis Deda, the stunning statue of a woman guarding the Republic of Georgia, by hopping the aerial tramway.
Every block offers flavors from the traditional supra, or feast. Meats are grilled while you wait. Churchkhela, a candy made of boiled fruit juice and nuts, is traditionally made in the fall. Many eating establishments make their own house wine.

If only two words could be used to describe Rome, no pair could be better than "creativity" and "culture." Even the most casual visitor is swept into the city's dizzying array of ancient sites, stunning artwork, and new surprises around every corner.
The Eternal City is the capital of Italy, and perhaps its most striking travel destination. The historic city center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that charges every vacation with the energy of the Roman Empire founded on the Seven Hills.
An exploration of Europe cannot be complete until Rome's particular adventures have been experienced. The palaces and church cathedrals, Roman ruins, monuments, fountains and statues each offer a new and exciting journey. Visitors to Italy can expand their knowledge base with an artist's view of the ancient city of Rome.
The color photos in Ruins of Rome I & II were taken at Palazzo Senatorio, Saint Peter's Basilica and Vatican City, Via della Conciliazione, the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, the Roman Forum, the Pantheon, San Paolo fuori le mura, Piazza del Popolo, Villa Borghese, various obelisks, and other sites. Step into this whirling place and become absorbed by its vibrant heart.
