Ananuri, Georgia

-
A place that I visited in georgia . I have posted a small description about this place for you all . It was a very nice place with so much of beauty . I took many pictures .I still remember the face of an old lady whom I met in the church entrance  . The church was awesome .It was so silent in peace . I bought few jewelry and an antique mirror . I took few pics with the wigs as well and sent it for a selfie contest . The coffee which I bought was awesome . Beautiful view !!

Ananuri architectural complex belonged to the house of the Eristavi of Aragvi - a violent local ruler. The characteristic architectural design of the late medieval period includes a fortress, two churches, an old watch tower, prison and civic buildings. Located on the famous Georgian Military Highway it stood as a guardian to the Northern boarders of Georgia. A picturesque view of reservoir spread bellow opens from the base of the Ananuri Fortress.

    Thank you for sharing the photos. A very beautiful and scenic place. I had to look at the map to find out where this Georgia country is located so I learn something new today.

    An interesting post. Great photos. I especially like the carvings above the door of the very old building, maybe the church.
    Thank you for sharing.

Cradle of wine

This is how Armenia welcomes you !!! You know you are in wine country the moment you land at the Yerevan airport where a 20-feet-tall inflatable wine bottle greets you outside the terminal . Armenia, along with Georgia, Azerbaijan, northern Iran and eastern Turkey constitute what is called the Cradle of Wine in the Caucasus Mountains. Wine-making supposedly originated here in biblical times. The meticulous Armenians have kept records of viticulture since Noah's time when the biblical patriarch planted the first vineyard at the foothills of Mount Ararat. Some of the highest wine-growing regions in the northern hemisphere, diverse microclimate and rich, volcanic soils lend distinct flavours to an array of indigenous grape varietals. Armenia is also known for brandy production. Driving around the country, the advertisements for Ararat brandy are everywhere.  Visiting the Areni village for the wine is a must .

Long time .. Having my sister's wedding next month it's a tight schedule that's going on but I managed to visit the mylapore kapaleeshwara temple this evening .The main reason to go was sight seeing of dolls , flowers ,roadside shops,saravana bhavan hotel and the crowd .I bought few elephant and cow dolls then few park items ,glass bangles and the nostalgic pambaram for my brother . The feel was really energizing and colourful .What a beautiful place .For a moment i thought if at all I had a house there instead of nanganallur how great it would have been .Anyhow I am keeping it low ,no greed:) So I ended the day with idly sambar . I think you all should visit mylapore once in lifetime during navarathri just to get that feel. Posting few pictures for you guys . Post in your experiences or what you think about this post . Aksi posting my Chennai golu 2018. My Chennai house golu .
