Pheasant's Tears is an awesome and authentic restaurant serving authentic Georgian cuisine. The restaurant is located in Sighnaghi, some 120km from the nation's capital Tbilisi. We have heard a lot about this place in the past but actually visited it for the first time in June 2020, while driving around the region of Kakheti.

At the end of November, my mother visited me again in Georgia. We decided to make a few easy day trips during her stay in Tbilisi. Our first day trip was to David Gareji Monastery complex and Sighnaghi. Although I've been to these places for a dozen of times, I never get bored of them. This time we took a road to David Gareji monastery complex via Rustavi town (which actually is a place I would love to return to take some urban photography), made a short stop at Gardabani to buy a freshly…

If there is a reason to visit Sighnaghi, then here you go - museums, history, and gourmet food. Sighnaghi has been on my travel list for years, and I keep returning year after year. Great views of the Alazani valley, interesting architecture and city wall are the reasons I keep returning. When looking for 5-star hotels in Sighnahi, seems there is just one (in 2017) Kabadoni Boutique Hotel. You should be willing to pay around GEL 30 (guesthouses) - GEL 220 (hotel) for a stay in a Sighnaghi.…

The Sighnaghi Museum is located in the charming Sighnagi town, region of Kakheti, Georgia. I have paid many, many visits to Sighnaghi, but for the very first time I visited this museum just at the end of 2016.

Well, few weeks ago I familiarized with famous Georgian painters Niko Pirosmani works and life, I was so impressed that I even ordered an artist to paint a…
