Marjanishvili District

Overview

The Marjanishvili district on the left bank of the Kura has emerged as Tbilisi’s trendiest neighbourhood, with craft-beer bars, galleries, co-working spaces, and street art covering every surface.

Highlights

• Street art: Large-scale murals by Georgian and international artists.
• Craft beer scene: Several independent breweries and taprooms.
• Theatre heritage: The Marjanishvili Theatre, founded in 1928, anchors the district.

History

Historically a working-class area, Marjanishvili gentrified rapidly after 2015 as young creatives moved in, drawn by cheap rents and character-filled buildings.
