Hotels near Mtatsminda Park
ზედა პლატო, ფუნიკულიორი, Tbilisi, Georgia
Mtatsminda (Holy Mountain) rises 770 metres above Tbilisi on the city's western edge and is reached by a 1905 funicular - one of the world's oldest still in service. The funicular climbs 500 metres in 9 minutes, dropping passengers at Mtatsminda Park, the Stalin-era summit amusement park with a Ferris wheel, restaurants, and the city's best panoramic view.
Halfway up the funicular line, the Pantheon of Writers and Public Figures holds the graves of Georgia's most important cultural figures including the writer Ilia Chavchavadze and the mother of Joseph Stalin. The summit Funicular Restaurant Complex in a 1938 building serves Georgian classics with the panorama; mains 35-80 GEL. Funicular operates 09:00-04:00, return ticket 4 GEL with a 1 GEL park card.
Pro Tip: Ride the funicular up around 1 hour before sunset, walk the summit ridge to the TV tower viewpoint, eat dinner at the Funicular Restaurant as lights come on, and ride down at 22:00 when the city looks like a constellation.
