Leghvtakhevi Tunnel (also frequently referred to as the Abanotubani Tunnel).
This old pedestrian passage starts directly at a small concrete pier on the right bank of the Mtkvari (Kura) River.
It passes deep underneath Vakhtang Gorgasali Street and Heydar Aliyev Park, leading humans directly into the dramatic Leghvtakhevi Gorge, behind the famous dome-shaped sulfur baths. The Riverside Entrance is found along the embankment wall next to the river, right below the Abanotubani district. Emerges inside the canyon, allowing you to walk straight down the scenic boardwalk to the Leghvtakhevi Waterfall.
Photography along the walls and the famous Georgian poet that wrote a poem that does not mention Georgia. Nikoloz Baratashvili. His famous 1842 philosophical poem "Merani" (The Steed) never explicitly mentions Georgia. Instead of a specific geographic homeland, the poem is about the universal human spirit, free will, and self-sacrifice for the sake of future generations. In the verses, the poet's flying steed carries him across unknown lands. When contemplating where he will meet his fate, he famously writes: "Where the night falls, there let it dawn, there let my country be"
