Tbilisi Funicular (Upper Station) — Attraction in Tbilisi

The Tbilisi Funicular Upper Station is hands down one of the most iconic spots in the city — and it absolutely lives up to the hype. Once you step off the funicular at the top, it’s like you’ve entered a whole new world. The views? Unreal. You get a full panoramic shot of Tbilisi that’s straight out of a travel magazine. Day or night, the city skyline from up here hits different.

The station itself is beautiful — a mix of old-school charm and elegance, with vintage architecture and a chill vibe. It’s also connected to the famous Funicular Restaurant Complex, so if you’re feeling fancy, grab a meal or a coffee with a view. Even if you're just walking around, there are plenty of photo ops and quiet corners to soak it all in.

Right next to the station is Mtatsminda Park, which is perfect for families, couples, or solo explorers. Rides, snacks, and nature all in one spot — it’s the full package.

If you're visiting Tbilisi and skip this place, you're seriously missing out. It’s the perfect blend of scenic beauty, peaceful atmosphere, and cultural charm....

Tbilisi city view from the top is spectacular, and this is a must visit place for every tourist. The city view and the view of the Tbilisi City tower are so different during the day time and at night that I will recommend visiting funicular just before the sunset and enjoy the evening sky followed by night...

This is the best way to go to mtatsminda and have a good look at the city. I paid 8 lari roundtrip and it’s okay, just for experience. The only thing that bothers me is how this tram somewhat passes by something.. i can’t really describe it but something like, when a vehicle takes a very short break to pass through a hump. Anyway, this may seem quite normal.. i dunno but I didn’t see any reaction from the...
