Batumi is the second-largest city of Georgia and the capital of Georgia's Autonomous Republic of Adjara, located on the coast of the Black Sea in Georgia's southwest, 20 kilometres (12 mi) north of the border with Turkey. It is situated in a subtropical zone at the foot of the Caucasus. Much of Batumi's economy revolves around tourism and gambling, but the city is also an important seaport and includes industries like shipbuilding, food processing and light manufacturing. Since 2010, Batumi has been transformed by the construction of modern high-rise buildings, as well as the restoration of classical 19th-century edifices lining its historic Old Town.

Nestled on the coast of the Black Sea, Batumi is a city that boasts a unique blend of old-world charm and modern-day sophistication. It's a place where you can wander the streets and admire the stunning architecture, or spend your days lounging on the beach and soaking up the sun.

One of the things that makes Batumi so special is its rich history. The city has been around for centuries, and as a result, there are plenty of historic landmarks and cultural attractions to explore. For example, you can visit the Batumi Archaeological Museum to learn about the city's ancient past, or take a stroll through the Old Town and admire the traditional Georgian architecture.
