The ex-Soviet republics of Georgia and Armenia occupy the farthest reaches of Europe and Asia, nestled in the Caucasus Mountains where ancient cultures once collided. Sandwiched between Russia, Persia and the Ottoman Empire, and at various times colonised by them all, Georgia and Armenia borrow elements of each but retain distinctive cultural identities and styles of architecture. The hospitality is amazing, as well as the cuisine, and the region remains well off the tourist circuit. For those looking for something intriguing, exciting and unusual, this trip shouldn’t be missed.
