Make sure to get a guide to tell you the history. Really nice and calm place.

An incredibly holy place with a centuries-old history, it impresses with its grandeur and energy. A shrine that truly feels the power of religion and the history of several nations. It is very difficult to put into words my feelings when the guide told me how everything happened. Everything is very interesting, amazing and delightful. Svetitskhoveli is a place where you want to return more than once.

Magnificent architecture. There is a bas-relief of the Holy Trinity on the wall behind the cathedral, but not in the usual image.
The cathedral preserves some of the most important Orthodox relics of Georgia: the chiton of the Lord, the font of King Mirian, a particle of the relics of the Apostle Andrew the First-Called, the robe of the prophet Elijah, the relics of the holy Georgian kings.
Go inside and leave the room from the altar. Shrines are kept there.
Since 1994, it has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
