Sighnaghi is a beautiful hilltop town located in Georgia’s Kakheti region. The town is encircled by well-preserved fortification walls and is famous for its scenic locales, picturesque mountains, and hikes through vineyards. Soak in the beauty and culture of the town by wandering along its cobblestoned alleys filled with colorful buildings, restaurants, and shops. Pass through the ancient city walls and gates that were built in 1762. Climb on top of the tower on the northern edge for stunning vistas of the Alazani valley and the Caucasus mountains. Visit the Bodbe monastery, an important religious site nestled in the mountains. The monastery and convent are also the final resting place of Saint Niro, a revered saint in Georgia. Munch on churchkhela, a Georgian snack made with walnuts coated in flour and grape juice.
