Highlighting the unique religious diversity, the article emphasises a Georgian Orthodox Cathedral, Armenian and Catholic churches, synagogues and a mosque being found within a small area in the city.

It is a city of amazing harmony, at the same time disorder, which after the removal of the iron curtain creates its own order in the world with amazing creativity in the field of fashion, gastronomy and art. The energy coming from Tbilisi offers us freedom and new opportunities - it is a fascinating city that should be explored in more depth”, the piece notes.
