Things to do in  Batumi

Blending water, light, and music into a mesmerizing show, Batumi’s Dancing Fountains are some of the city’s most dazzling attractions. Located in three places in the city, including on an ornamental lake along the southern part of Batumi Boulevard, these fountains are beloved local landmarks and a must-see for travelers who are seeking a magical evening in Georgia’s Black Sea resort.

Everything seen at the ethnographic museum “Borjgalo” can be traced back to a single source—the creator Mr. Kemal Turmanidze. Stereotypical agricultural life in the Adjara region is displayed throughout this open-air private museum with model buildings, woodwork, and other folk handicrafts. Here you can learn about the different cultural and societal roles people once took on in the region surrounding Batumi.

Behind the stone beaches of Batumi lie the promenades, gardens, and parkland that constitute Batumi Boulevard. The Batumi Boulevard Fountains are a highlight at the heart of the park, but features such as colonnades, bamboo groves, and the beautiful Batumi Summer Theater can also be found here. Dining, leisure, and entertainment are all available depending on where you look, making this a space for every kind of traveler.

Located in Batumi’s historical center, Batumi Piazza features an enormous marble mosaic at its center, fringed by the canopies, dining tables, and chairs of surrounding restaurants. The mystery of why this public square is described as a “piazza” soon becomes clear when looking at the Venetian-inspired architecture that encloses this lively outdoor dining and nightlife spot.

Close to the shores of the Black Sea, 6 May Park is one of the oldest public parks in the Republic of Georgia and the perfect destination for travelers seeking a peaceful escape from the busy streets of Batumi. Its tranquil atmosphere and lush greenery make it a serene spot, just a short walk from the city's lively waterfront.

The Batumi Church of the Holy Spirit is a striking blend of contemporary architecture and spiritual significance. Consecrated in 2000, this Roman Catholic church is one of the city’s most captivating landmarks and a top attraction for anyone interested in the Republic of Georgia's history and culture. It's also one of the most serene spots in Batumi.

One of the most remarkable buildings in the Republic of Georgia, Batumi’s Technological University Tower (Batumi Tower) was the first skyscraper in the world to include a Ferris wheel built into the facade. Although the Ferris wheel has never been in operation, seeing eight cabins hanging 330 feet (100 meters) above the ground is worth a look.
