Pigeon Bridge (1968) in Borjomi

The Pigeon Bridge, built in 1968 in the city of Borjomi, is a historical and symbolic landmark. The bridge was built after a devastating flood that flooded the city and cut off the right bank of the Kura River from the main part of Borjomi. Its uniqueness lies in the unusual method of construction: the initial thread for construction was brought by a pigeon, which allowed local residents to string the first rope bridge. In memory of this event, sculptures of doves were installed at both ends of the bridge.

The Pigeon Bridge is not only an important transport facility, but also a place that embodies the spirit of unity and mutual assistance. Visitors to Borjomi can walk across the bridge, enjoy scenic views of the Kura River and surrounding area, and learn about the significant historical role of this place. The Pigeon Bridge is a popular location for both tourists and local residents, offering a unique opportunity to experience the history and culture of the region.
