Cableways Chiatura, Chiatura, Georgia Chiatura - the extraordinary view catches our eyes: randomly built high-rise blocks, abandoned construction sites and vehicles from the Soviet period, tattered towers of cableways sticking out on the horizon. As if an imaginary worker pressed the "stop" button and everything still stood for tens of years! The situation is saved by the creaking of old cars and moving archaic cabins, which confidently climb up to the top of the mountains.

Giorgi was a superb tour guide, he speaks great English and communicated with me ahead of time on Whatsapp, and even offered to show me around Tskaltubo in addition to Chiatura, which I definitely could not have done on my own in the time allotted. He was born and raised in Kutaisi so his stories from growing up there during the late Soviet years add really nice background color as you get to know this part of Georgia.
