Picturesque nature, emerald water, high rocks hanging over the Abasha River, which for thousands of years made its way through the rocks, attracts a large number of guests of our country. Be sure to take a ride with this beauty on a boat, as at the end of the path you will find a 12-meter waterfall that does not fall to the bottom carrying a huge mass of water. It was here that the baths of the Dadiani princes were located. There are many places in Georgia where geologists have discovered the sites of primitive people. More recently, not far from the canyon, another site and dinosaur footprints were discovered. And where else can you see the footprints of dinosaurs, follow the link …
