Georgia Georgian Overhanging Rocks Ananuri
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking beauty and historical significance of the Military Road in Georgia, specifically the area near Ananuri, during the 1910s. The winding road, carved into the side of the valley, leads the eye towards the distant horizon, where the mountains seem to touch the sky. The rocks, jutting out from the cliffside, create a sense of drama and intrigue, with their overhanging forms casting long shadows over the road below. The Military Road, also known as the Georgian Military Highway, has been a vital transportation route for centuries, connecting the Black Sea coast with the mountainous regions of Georgia. Ananuri, a historic site located along the highway, is home to a castle complex and a church complex, both of which date back to the 16th and 17th centuries. The area has long been a popular destination for travelers seeking to explore the rich cultural and natural wonders of this beautiful country. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages and rugged terrain. The rugged terrain, combined with the stunning natural beauty of the area, makes for a breathtaking scene that remains as captivating today as it was over a century ago.
