Uplistsikhe begins showing up in historical records as a major spiritual center as early as the 4th century BCE. This fascinating city was carved into the cliffs, reaching an immense importance by the 9th and 10th centuries. It was granted the status of an Immovable Monument of National Significance in 2006.

The Joseph Stalin Museum is a museum in Gori, Georgia dedicated to the life of Joseph Stalin, the leader of the Soviet Union, who was born in Gori. The museum retains its Soviet-era characteristics.

Gori is perhaps most famous as the birthplace of the Soviet Dictator Stalin, but there is so much more to the city than its most infamous former resident. A visit to Gori will see you discovering a dynamic, youthful city, and learning about its past all at the same time. As a bonus, you can visit several spectacular historical sites around it!
