The history of this house and its owners is fascinating. You can have a tour in about 5 rooms of the house and see the furniture and hear the tails. The park is very pleasant and quiet. You can listen to the birds sing.
Poorly organized. The staff is not as friendly as in most other places in Georgia. Everything is in Georgian only, so unless you have a local guide, you can't read anything in the museum actually, it wouldn't be that different even if you could read Georgian, since most exhibits are not labeled. You have to wait for the next available guide. You can't take photos in the museum.
The park is beautiful and very well maintained, it is definitely worth a visit. But you won't lose much by skipping the museum itself.
Nice restored main estate house with historical items, and a pretty garden. Worth a short visit if it is on your way. The price was 7 gel for a tour and wine tasting
Nice museum, not very big, things are gathered from different places. Very beautiful park.
Alexander Tchactchavadze was a leading spirit of Georgian romanticism. This is the place where he lived and worked. Here you can see a memorial house, a garden, the winery. And also you can have a taste of the local wine in the cafe.
Nice garden. Historical house of the founder of the first Georgian's European styled winery.
Nice place to walk. You can buy and test wines.
Prince Alexander Chavchavadze, the founder of the Georgian romanticism turned the estate in the village of Tsinandali, which he inherited from his father into cultural and intellectual center of the country, the status it preserves to this day. The place regularly hosts exhibitions, concerts, literary events and master classes.
The complex in Tsinandali embraces the memorial house, a landscape garden, a historical winery, wine cellar, hotel and a café. The vineyards have been restored and wine production has resumed. We offer you a pleasurable and informative experience: you will look into the background of the noble Chavchavadze family, who played a significant part in the national history; enjoy the views of the garden, have a look at the winery and sample the “Tsinandali” (first produced by the Chavchavadzes) etc. Georgian wines and round off the visit at the historical hotel.
The landscape garden in Tsinandali is the first European-type recreation zone in Georgia. It was laid out by the landscape architects Alexander Chavchavadze invited from Europe. The garden is unique for its exotic plants and layout. In it, there is “the love lane”. The legend says that if lovers can walk though it with their eyes shut, their life together will be happy. It was in this garden that Nino Chavchavadze and Alexander Griboedov first met to be married soon.
It was in the Tsinandali winery that the wine was first bottled in Georgia. Al. Chavchavadze’s collection of vintage wines consists of over 15 000 bottles, with the oldest dated with 1814.
Since 2008, the Tsinandali complex has been under the patronage of Silk Road Group that has invested over 12 mln USD. Over 100 exhibits have been restored and more than 500 have been acquired.
We can tell you a lot more about the Chavchavadze family estate but you’d better come to see it yourself!
beautiful place for rest. there are beautiful garden. place where you can enjoy with nature in peace
Nice historical house. Very rude staff. Very expensive. Tasting is only for one white wine which is poor too. Nothing is impressive. Waste of time and money.
Beautiful garden and some interesting stories of the place inside. However, some places were closed for renovation.
There is especially beautiful garden, you can taste here Georgian wine and see how Georgian dukes was lived.
Close to the nature! Autumn is amazing in Kakheti 🍁🍂The story of Alexander Chavchavadze ❤ Experienced the past, history of Georgia! The guide in the museum was very informative! liked the puzzle of bushes and so called "dream tree" in the yard! I definitely recommend the place to everyone!!
Great place! If you visit Kakheti, you must see this place and taste the local wine
Take a chance to taste the one of the best wines in Georgia here in Tsinandali!
Relax, sitting or walking in beautiful English garden from 18th century and visit the cosy palace which belonged to the prince Chavchavadze.
The place has beautiful park and museum! I always love to visit it when I am in Kakheti! They have old winery and you can go for wine tasting here as well!
Mildly interesting, but outdated even for a museum about an historical figure. Wine tasting afterwards was maybe the most interesting part of the tour.
This place have a wonderfull garden.
Amazing garden and well preserved house hold including old news papers
Great place to visit. Interesting guided tour in the house, gorgeous local wine shop and beautiful park outside.
Beautiful Place. If You are Visiting Kakheti, You Must See it too.
Visit this place and see the olden French style furniture. Can understand the Alexander and his family life style. A staff of this museum explains everything in English.
Prince Alexander Chavchavadze(Georgian: ალექსანდრე ჭავჭავაძე; Russian: Александр Чавчавадзе) (1786 – November 6, 1846) was a notable Georgian poet, public benefactor and military figure. Regarded as the "father of Georgian romanticism", he was a pre-eminent Georgian aristocrat and a talented general in the Imperial Russian service.
Lovely building and grounds belonging to Alexander Chavchavadze's family, now a small museum. Would benefit from a more interactive tour guide in English The one we had was friendly but mostly spewed or memorised factoids.
