Timotesubani Monastery
ტიმოთესუბნის მონასტერი
A red-brick monastery from the 12th–13th century Golden Age of Georgia, with well-preserved medieval murals on its interior walls.
Timotesubani Monastery is located in a valley forest about 25 km east of Borjomi. The main church, the Church of the Dormition of the Virgin, was built during the reign of Queen Tamar, in the 12th–13th centuries. It is constructed of pink brick and stone, and the interior is covered with early 13th-century murals, whose colours are well preserved. It is a representative example of Georgia's Golden Age art. The monastery is still in use. Admission is free, and visitors should dress modestly, with women wearing a headscarf. A car or hired vehicle is needed to get there, and it can be scheduled on the same day as Bakuriani.
