One of Tbilisi’s most beloved attractions is not a beautiful church or an ancient castle, but an informal marketplace that has taken over Dry Bridge since the 1950s. A short walk away from the Presidential Palace, Dry Bridge Market offers a fascinating glimpse into Georgia’s history and present.

Meidan Bazaar


Meidan Bazaar:
Meidani Square in Old Tbilisi is a kind of place where the distant past, with all its charm and exoticism, comes to life. This ancient district of Tbilisi has been known as the main bazaar since time immemorial, not only in Georgia, but in all of the Caucasus. Merchants were coming there to trade from all over the East, and there were craftspeople workshops around there as all. "The market area is both a meeting place and a bazaar at the same time. You will not find so many different foreigners in the world as you will there. There are Armenians, Greeks, Jews, Persians, Indians, Turks, Moscovites, and Europeans," wrote the French jeweler, gem seller, and traveler, Jean Chardin, when he visited Georgia in 1672 - 1673.
