Originally an administrative district, Old Tbilisi is a distinct area of the Republic of Georgia's largest city. At its heart, the Tbilisi Historic District straddles the Kura River. On the left bank are the Alexanderdorf German quarter, and the Avlabari Armenian and Georgian neighborhood. On the right stands the Persian Quarter known as Said-Abad.
The iconic wooden buildings with ornate balconies sit in the shadow of the ancient Narikala fortress. Dating from the 4th century, Shuris-tsikhe was originally called the Invidious Fort. Much later it became Narin Qala, Little Fortress. Much of what visitors see today dates from the 16th and 17th centuries.
Looking down on the original Old Tbilisi is Kartlis Deda. The monument atop Sololaki is sixty feet high. The aluminum figure wears the traditional Georgian national dress for women. She greets visitors who mean well with a bowl of wine in her left hand. In her right is a sword with which she greets those who mean Georgia harm.
Lower down, bathhouses utilize the sulfur spring. The water flows in an open canal through the middle of the Abanotubani, or bath, district. The round domes mark the Turkish baths. These ancient structures are still in operation and are open for public use.
Explore this astonishing maze with Original Old Tbilisi: From Kartlis Deda to the Sulfur Baths (a Travel Photo Art book).

Surprises await in Turin, Italy's first capital.
Long before Turin hosted the Olympics, it marked important Italian milestones. In 1563, it became the capital of the Duchy of Savoy. During the period of the Kingdom of Italy, from 1861 to 1865, Turino served as unified Italy's first capital city.
This "cradle of Italian liberty" hosted individuals who contributed to the Risorgimento, the Resurgence that unified the country, including statesman Camillo Paolo Filippo Giulio Benso, Count of Cavour, Isolabella and Leri.
Turin is also rich with cultural gems. Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Neo-classical, and Art Nouveau architecture captivate during a casual stroll. The Mole Antonelliana is visible from various points around the city. The bell tower offers stunning views.
Visitors can picnic near the Palatine Gates and their magnificent towers. A stroll along Via Garibaldi or shopping on Via Roma ends with a Bicerin, an espresso drink. The layers of coffee, chocolate, and whipped cream might be Italy's best-kept coffee secret.
Taste these surprises and more with the color photos in Treasures of Turin: The First Italian Capital (a Travel Photo Art book).
