Join Us! Discover How Tourism Supports Cultural Heritage in Georgia
At the crossroads of Europe, Asia and the Middle-East is the country of Georgia, tucked between the Caucasus mountain range and the Black Sea. Georgia has a long and rich cultural history that can be seen in its vibrant culinary traditions, dazzling dance, haunting polyphonic music, and soaring early-Christian cathedrals. Georgia is also widely known as the “birthplace of wine,” with a documented viticulture over 8000 years old.
Tourism has played an important part in conserving the country’s cultural heritage.
Please join the Solimar team along with Ahmed Eiweida, World Bank Program Leader, Sustainable Development and Tika Lebanidze, Consultant to the World Bank, for a presentation and discussion on how the World Bank’s South Caucasus Regional Development Program has supported regional development, cultural heritage and tourism growth in Georgia and neighboring Armenia. The presentation will be held at Solimar’s Columbia Heights office.
A sampling of Georgian wines will be served.
