What to see in Georgia - Grandfather En's Garden in Tbilisi is one of the most beautiful places to relax in a friendly company.

You probably wondered what is Grandpa Ena? Deda Ena ("mother tongue") is the very first book about learning the Georgian language. It was first written in 1865 by Yakov Gogebashvili. For more information about this book, you can find out from our historical guides on the tour. Grandfather En's Garden is more famous as the main gathering point of the protesters.

The case occurred in 1977, when the authorities adopted the Soviet Constitution, following which Georgian was no longer the main language, and Russian became the official language of the Georgian USSR, although both dialects were recognized in the constitution of 1936. After such an outburst of the Supreme Power, protests began. A large protest took place in the Garden of Grandfather Ena Park on April 14, 1978, citizens demanded to preserve the official status of their native language. Thanks to the public response, the authorities have left the Georgian language official.

For the sake of capturing this victory, a memorial to the maternal language of Grandfather En was erected a little later in the garden of En, and on April 14, the Mother Tongue Day is now celebrated annually.

Walking in the park of Grandfather En, you can get out to the flea market near the Dry Bridge and buy a lot of unique, rare things. There you can also see the House of Justice nearby, reflecting the image of the entire current urbanization of Tbilisi.

In conclusion, I would like to note that the parks of Tbilisi can be safely recorded in the most beautiful places of Georgia and recommend them to any traveler to visit. Travel around Georgia it is much more interesting if you have a historical guide who will tell you all the secrets and unique places of the country.
