The most popular resorts worth visiting in Georgia. Pasanauri Resort.

The historical and geographical edge of Georgia, Tianeti, covers the valley of the Tetri (Mtiuletis) Aragvi River. Its center, the village of Pasanauri, is located at the mouth of the Tetri and Shavi (Gudamakris) Aragvi rivers, in a picturesque valley surrounded by the Caucasus Mountains.

The establishment and development of the settlement was facilitated by the construction of the Georgian military road and the creation of a military outpost at this place, convenient from a geographical and strategic point of view. At the outpost, passers-by were forced to pay a toll - the "price", as the people called this toll. In Georgian, the word price translates as "pasi". It is from here that the name of the village is connected.
