The pearl of Kakheti is the city of Sighnaghi, the people also call it the City of Love. The city was formed from the settlement of the same name in the 18th century. Until now, it is surrounded by a beautiful fortress wall, perfectly preserved to this day.
The city of Sighnaghi is located on a picturesque mountain overlooking the Alazani valley. The landscapes around us remind us a little of Italy: elevation changes, vineyards, red tiled roofs, except that the architecture of the churches still betrays Armenian-Georgian features.
According to local legend, the artist Niko Pirosmani, in love, covered the square in front of the hotel where his beloved woman lived with flowers. Beloved was the French actress Marguerite de Sevres. Did you recognize Alla Pugacheva's famous song “A Million Scarlet Roses” in this story? Yes, it turns out that it is about this story!
The town is very pleasant, clean mountain air, a view of the Caucasian ridge and the Alazani valley, cobbled streets of the old city - all this enchants and falls in love.
