Things to do in Gori
What each one costs, where the cost is known.
Stalin Museum
A fascinating and controversial museum preserving Stalin's birthplace, personal railway carriage, and Soviet-era memorabilia. Entry is cheap, and the unreconstructed Soviet presentation is part of the experience.
Uplistsikhe Cave Town
An ancient rock-hewn town dating back 3,000 years, carved into a cliff above the Mtkvari river. Entry is affordable, and the scale of the cave network is genuinely impressive.
