A great place for tourists with families to visit. Sights in the cities of Georgia. The sea gate of Sakartvelo is the port city of Poti.

Located on the Black Sea coast, the city of Poti is ranked among the most ancient cities in the world. Historians attribute the first mention of it to the 7-5 century BC. At that time, Poti was called Phasis and was a Greek colony.

Already at that time, the city was actively developing - trading, fighting, recovering from devastating raids. The first academy was also organized in the ancient Poti-Phasis.

Moreover, it was taught in two languages - Greek and Georgian.

The ancient Poti owes its first name - Phasis... a pheasant bird. According to legend, these birds were brought by the Argonauts.

Despite the very solid age of the city, its most popular attraction among tourists and travelers are beaches with ferruginous sand.

Ureki is one of the most expensive resorts in Georgia, located 10 km from Poti. On its territory, in addition to the coastal zone, which is called Magnetiti, you can find a boarding house, a state nursery, guest houses and private hotels.

The effects of sand on the human body can be compared with magnetotherapy, which is often used for the treatment and prevention of a number of diseases. Only in this case, the "apparatus" was created by nature itself - two mountain rivers have been working for centuries to create a unique beach.
