Georgia's Kazbegi Mountain, beautiful!

Georgia travel recommendation: Kazbegi, a place that makes people reluctant to leave! Legend has it that Mount Kazbek is the place where Prometheus was imprisoned by Zeus after stealing fire, and it is also the standard boundary line between the Eurasian plates. Buick Mountain is covered in snow all year round. From a distance, it looks like a giant ice cream 🍦. It takes about 3 hours to drive from the capital Tbilisi. The mountain is very cold, so it is recommended to bring a down jacket for warmth. Buick 💰Ticket: Free 👀Suggested duration of visit: 2 days 🚃Transportation: ✅1. Take a bus to get there. Take bus route 46 in the city to Didube bus station. The bus fare is 0.5 lari . Then take a mini-bus from the bus station to reach Kazbegi town. The fare is 10 lari . ✅2. Charter a car. Negotiate with the driver for the price. My friend paid 45 Lari per person for a round trip . On the way, we met a lady from Northeast China who paid 150 Lari for the charter and could stop anytime. 🌟If you want to go to the church ⛪️ on the mountaintop ✅1. You can charter a car from the foot of the mountain. Generally, the driver will first quote 50 Lari for round trip. After negotiating with the driver for a long time, we settled on 30 Lari and stayed at the mountaintop for half an hour. ✅2. You can also hike up the mountain, which takes about 2 hours, but the snow is slippery halfway and going up and down would take 4 hours, so I gave up and chose to charter a car instead. 🌟Tips: The last mini bus from Kazbegi to the city center of Tbilisi is at 5pm, so don't miss the return time if you want to go, my friends.

After a long, steep climb in 32 degrees, we reached the view point of the glacier below mount Kazbeg. The route is clear and very busy. It can be difficult terrain at times, so walking boots and poles are advised. Climb time from the gergeti church was 2 1/2 hours and 1 1/2 hours descent. Very well worth the effort for amazing unrivalled views. #givethanks #givethanks
