Ananuri Fortress Complex Review

it is located on the way from tiblisi to kazbegi, it is perfect to have a quick stop and rest during the long drive and stop by this beautiful fortress.

[Anouj Fortress] Anouj Fortress is about 70 kilometers away in Tbilisi. Since it was on the cover of Lonely Planet, it has become a popular online celebrity attraction for global travelers, because it is also the only way to go to the Kazbuek Mountains. The Ananuj Fortress was the location of the Erista Weiss region of the medieval Principality of Alawi, when the Kingdom of Georgia was subservient to the Persian Afshar dynasty, divided into feudal principalities large and small, ruled by the Duke. In the 13th century, the Shaburisdze family was the first duke of the Principality of Alawi to be de-enlisted, and later passed to the Tumanisdze family, the rise of the family with King Alania in the mid-16th century, and the joint Duke Ksani usurped the property of the Tumanisdze family and other nobles. The title was changed to hereditary. In 1743, Elkor II merged the kingdoms of Caltli and Kakhti, and the Alawians revolted, killing the then autonomous Duke Bezhan, and dedicating the Principality of Alawi to Elkor II. Thus, Elker II conquered small principalities such as Alawi and Cassani, and unified Eastern Georgia, where the Ananuj fortress was a military heavyweight.

Early in the morning, we took the minibus to leave Kazbuek, passed the reservoir, took a picture of the beautiful scenery, and continued to leave after a short rest. After 2 hours, we arrived at Ananuri Castle, which was the Ananuri Fortress on the cover of the Transcaucasian edition of Lonely Planet, which was built in the 13th century. Has been included in the list of World Cultural Heritage sites. One of the must-see attractions recommended for tourists 😎

Attracted by the platform of Lonely Planet, it is also a must-have road to the ski resort. It is better to meet. The inside is dilapidated and in disrepair. The outside is because it is the dry season in winter. It is not a beautiful scenery at all. It cannot be compared with the Cross Abbey.

This is the Ana Nuer Fortress on the cover of the Lonely Planet Transcaucasus edition. The day of shooting was cloudy, and it was raining lightly. At the same angle, and the lake behind was just thirsty. It was a pity that it was definitely not worse than that cover photo. The beauty of Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Armenia is numerous, and the Arnano Day Fortress can be an orphan cover, which shows how online its status is. In fact, for most travelers, the fortress is not a must-see place, but I don’t know that the road to the famous Kazbek Mountain will pass by this Shenyin Castle, which has occupied the cover of Lonely Planet, after passing a bridge, to a rest stop. Don't rush into the castle after getting off the bus, you can take this cover photo in the middle of the bridge. The perfect combination of nature and humanistic scenery is one of the highest places in Georgia. It is estimated that it will be included in the World Heritage List in a short time. This is a very historical castle, which can also be called a fortress. I believe that Lonely Planet must have made a detailed comparison. Ultimately choosing her to be the cover is not just simply thinking that the scenery is beautiful, but more about its historical status, right? Like the castle world in a fairy tale, everything is still in the era she built, surrounded by no modern buildings, and she is as good as ever.
