Batumi>Musicians Park >Batumi Botanical Garden> Ali and Nino & Batumi Center.
After breakfast in the morning, we will set off towards Batumi and stop at Musicians Park along the way. The park features statues and sculptures of both Georgian and world-famous musicians; as you approach, you can hear their music.
Our next stop will be at the entrance to Batumi, where the Batumi Botanical Garden awaits us. The garden is known for its rich flora, featuring plants from nearly every climatic zone in the world, growing side by side: Asia, America, Australia, the Mediterranean region, and more. The garden offers a service of electric buses, which makes the visit much more comfortable and necessary, as the Batumi Botanical Garden spans 108 hectares. In this garden, you will also find the famously popular zipline, which is very well-known and seen on social media. [P.S. The garden has an entrance and a back exit; if you book the electric bus, the driver must be informed so that the transport can be brought to the exit…]
Next stop: Ali and Nino. Here I will tell you the story you need to know: In 1937, the novel “Ali and Nino” was published, depicting the relationship and love between a young Muslim (Ali) and a Georgian Christian (Nino), which tragically ends due to historical, political, and social circumstances. The concept of the statue consists of two figures, “Ali” and “Nino,” who move toward each other and unite for just a brief moment—before separating again. This movement symbolically represents the moments of love, separation, and unity. Ali and Nino is one of Batumi’s visiting cards.
Overnight in Kutaisi.
