Bargain at least half-and-half, with painted ceramics and croissant glasses recommended. 5pm: Watch the sunset at Peace Bridge Walking to the glass bridge over the Kula River, this modern building offers an interesting contrast to the old city, which turns golden at sunset and is the best moment for photos. 7pm: Dinner + wine experience Georgia is the birthplace of wine, go to Vinotheque restaurant and order Saperavi red wine with stewed beef (Chakapuli) and the waiter will teach you how to drink wine in a traditional croissant. Practical tips: 1. Visa: Holders of Chinese passports can sign electronically ($20) or visa-free with developed country visas 2. Transportation: City attractions are within walking distance, long distance recommended to use Bolt to call a taxi (cheaper than taxis) 3. Currency: 1 lari ≈ 2.7 RMB, card can be swiped in most places 4. Language: Young people can speak English basically, learn the phrase "Gmadlobt" (thank you) more friendly Although you can't play all the attractions in one day, you can experience the most essence of Tbilisi by such an arrangement. If time permits, it is highly recommended to stay for a few more days to visit Kazbek Mountain or Signage Winery!
