๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ชโค๏ธ Gabashvili's house in Tbilisi.

In the streets adjacent to Rustaveli Avenue, not far from McDonald's, you can find one of the pearls of the capital - amazingly beautiful house with a carved balcony.
At the end of the 19th century, Prince Vasil lived there with his family. The building was designed by the famous architect Kornely Tatishchev in 1897 (he also designed the Rustaveli Theatre). In front of the main entrance there is a small garden with a fountain. Vasil Gabashvili's descendants still live in the house, which in Soviet times even managed to be a communal apartment. They restored the old mansion, which was threatened with devastation, on their own. The restoration took nine years. What happened, look at the photo.
๐Ÿ“ Here is a big article about the house and its history in English.
