Borjomi is famous for its resorts and mineral water. The original water is a bit warm with a salty and sulfuric taste. The manufactured and bottled spring water tastes very different and is a lot more carbonated compared to European spring waters.
Borjomi is famous for its resorts and mineral water. The original water is a bit warm with a salty and sulfuric taste. The manufactured and bottled spring water tastes very different and is a lot more carbonated compared to European spring waters. The drink is still popular in former Soviet countries, and for Georgian men it’s the best drink to cure hangovers.
Besides sampling the water, you can visit the Borjomi-Kharagauli National Park. Or if culture is more your thing, head to the neighbouring village, Likani to explore the Romanov summer palace. Another great option is to take the Borjomi-Bakuriani railway Georgians call ‘Kukushka’ for magnificent views of lush forests. On the way, you might come across the masterpiece, Gustav Eiffel, the bridge that connects Tsagveri to Tsemi. In 1902, Romanov, part of the Russian royal family,ordered the bridge to be built in France and brought Georgia.
