Subjects : A perfect location for urbex practitioners, in this small town near Kutaisi you can find several Soviet-era sanatoriums left to their own devices. Among the many I mention the Sanatorium Metallurgist, the Sanatorium Medea and the Sanatorium Gelati with the children's park at the back. Other interesting sanatoriums have been purchased and are being restored, therefore, no longer accessible. Several sanatoriums are inhabited by displaced people from the Abkhazia region, always be careful, because some have unfriendly guard dogs

Recommended equipment : Definitely a fairly bright ultra-wide-angle zoom or better yet a very bright ultra-wide-angle fixed, many photos will be taken indoors and there will not be much light

Best months : Any time of the year can be fine, the region has temperate climate. Rain is often present all year round.

How to get there : You can get there comfortably from Kutaisi by taxi, the cost is about 5 euros for one way

Visits : The Sanatorium Medea and the Sanatorium Gelati are free of charge. For the Sanatorium Metallurgist it is necessary to pay a couple of euros per person to a woman who lives there illegally.

Notes : Always do a web search before venturing here. Many buildings are being restored, some are inhabited by displaced people from the war in Abkhazia, therefore, it is always necessary to inquire before making an empty trip. Be very careful when entering abandoned buildings, most of the inhabitants will not bother you, some will ask you for a small tip to enter what is now their home, others have unfriendly guard dogs. Always remember that the people live here and in any case you have to have respect.
