Cheaper than Europe and fewer than Xinjiang people, this visa free country is really delicious!
Bordering Russia and Türkiye, Georgia, as one of the few countries with expired visas, is the most worthy country to visit in the Caucasus in my mind.
Outdoor hiking paradise of Kazbek and Mestia. Millennium old capital Mzheta, the hometown of the medieval village Ushu. Batumi, the shore of the Black Sea, and Kutaisi, the eastern end of Greek mythology. As the birthplace of wine, even French people come here to taste red wine 🍷
