Bank of Georgia Headquarters built in 1975. .The structure consists of interlocking concrete forms. Two-storey horizontal parts are placed on top of each other in the form of a grid. This 18-story building cannot be left out of sight and has never been.

Jvari Monastery is a sixth century Georgian Orthodox monastery near Mtskheta, eastern Georgia. Along with other historic structures of Mtskheta,

He was in the parking lot of the Monaastery

Jvari Monastery stands on the rocky mountaintop at the confluence of the Mtkvari and Aragvi rivers, overlooking the town of Mtskheta, which was formerly the capital of the Kingdom of Iberia.
