David Gareja Monastery is situated 75 km south- east of Tbilisi. Founded in the 6th century by the Christian Father St. David. The monasteries of Lavra, Udabno, Dodo and Bertubani are remarkable for their original cave frescoes that date from the 8th to 13th centuries. The setting is no less impressive and expects to see the fabulous white vultures soaring in the sky above.
