Symposium Venue
Bakuriani is a beautiful mountain resort standing on the bed of volcanic lava flow and surrounded by fir-covered mountains. Abundance of coniferous forests makes the Bakuriani air crystal fresh. Unique mineral waters of Borjomi take their origin in the alpine slopes above the forests.
Exceptional climatic conditions make Bakuriani not only a seasonal but also a permanent resort. Cool summer, marvelous views, fresh air, many tourist routes to Tskhratskaro Range, Tabatskuri and Kakhisi lakes, Borjomi National Park and historical monuments make it a great destination all year around.
