Danish artist Livja Viksna has published illustrations of Georgia with descriptions of how fascinating the country is and to encourage people worldwide to visit the country amid the Russian ban on flights to Georgia.

A few days ago demonstrations in Georgia's capital Tbilisi sparked Putin to make a flight ban from Russia to Georgia, and since tourism is a huge part of Georgia’s economy, the country needs your support more than ever! I here present to you this enchanting country with nine illustrations,” she says.
