Nazanin Amiri Instagram – In Tbilisi, (Georgia)the sulfur baths are conveniently located in the center of Old Town. The warm natural springs may have helped to give Tbilisi its name. The legend goes that King Vakhtang Gorgasali was hunting for pheasants with his falcon. The pheasant fell into the “hot sulfuric” water and his falcon followed, causing both to perish. Shortly after this, the King moved the capitol here and renamed the city Tbilisi, which loosely translates from Georgian to “warm.”
So, these warm sulfuric waters helped to establish Tbilisi. These healing waters inspired a King, and the legend is even depicted in the form of a statue. Find it in the center of Tbilisi, next to the popular sulfur baths.💎
