Anaklia resort
One of the newest popular resorts in Georgia is Anaklia. This is a new resort, that has been recently renovated and has become a great place for tourists and groups to go and relax on a seaside, or just have fun together, or they even have some conferences and presentations and business meetings and stuff like that there, so what I want to say is that it's not just a place for relaxation, but people can also have serious meetings there and it's a really good place for that.
Anaklia is located in the western part of Georgia, of course, there where the sea is, it is a seaside town. It is in Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region, and as you know, many towns are situated on rivers or nearby rivers, and so Anaklia is one of those towns and it's on the territory where the river Enguri flows into the Black Sea. Anaklia is near the administrative border of Abkhazia this is a Georgian territory now occupied by Russia and there was a war between Abkhazians and Georgians and Russia invaded these territories and that is a very long and complicated story and I don't want to get into that now. So, just so you know, these kind of things have happened and they happened just some years ago.
There is a quite long history of settlements on this territories where Anaklia is situated now. Even in he Bronze Age there were some settlements and the Colchian culture takes place from there. When there was that Greek colonization around the Black Sea territories, they reached Georgian seaside territories too, of course, and they had all these colonies and settlements made there. Anaklia has been a town of a significant meaning, as it was on seaside and it was an important sea port and stuff like that So it was not just some town, to begin with.
When I heard that Anaklia resort was being built, well, technically, it was built, not really renovated, if you ask me, because there was not much to be renovate or whatsoever, I did not think that it would become this beautiful and nice. That is a really nice place for your visit. And, well, if you are in Georgia and you are going to the seaside, perhaps you should consider going to Anaklia to stay, or just give it a little visit and just look around there, as it is not a place not worth visiting.
The place is very nice with all those statues and figures and modern things all around. There is a nice pavement all the way to the beach, and the beach is all sandy and stuff and it's really beautiful, if you ask me. There are two major hotels, built just recently some years ago.
When I visited Anaklia, it was still being renovated and built and everything, but it was really something beautiful and you would want to be there and walk on the beach and play in the sand and just walk in those boulevard-style territory, which is really long and it kind of surrounds this particular area of Anaklia.
