Adjara, located on the Black Sea coast, is the birthplace of the boat-shaped Adjaruli khachapuri. The bread represents a boat, the cheese is the sea, and the egg yolk symbolizes the sun setting over the water. Traditionally, you tear off pieces of the warm crust to swirl the rich filling before eating. It is a hearty masterpiece that locals eat with their hands.

Abanotubani is Tbilisi's historic sulfur bath district, famous for its distinctive red-brick domes.
