Описание к видео Sulfur Bath in Tiflis - Part 12 Georgian Tour 🇬🇪

Abanotubani, literally meaning “bath district”, is an ancient part of Tbilisi, known for its famous brick houses and sulfur bathhouses.

The origin of the bathhouse district dates back to when the city was founded and plays an important part in its history. According to the legend, when the falcon of King Vakhtang Gorgasali fell in one of the hot springs, the king decided to build the capital on top of the springs. As a result, Tbilisi earned its name (‘warm place’) from the very same hot springs that ran under the city, and which eventually became the foundation for the bathhouses.
