PHOTO STORY
3. Earthquakes and invasions - much
of the pre-19th century city
suffered at the hands of Persian
invaders in 1795 - have shaped
the old city's cobbled streets and
tilting houses.
So too has a drive to regenerate
the enchanting, but often
dilapidated, neighbourhood.

17. The ornate wooden doorways and
crumbling facades of buildings are
still untouched by the
redevelopment which is altering
the face of Tbilisi.
With its 17-centuries-old citadel,
Orthodox churches, decorated
columns and balconied houses,
Old Tbilisi exudes the charm of an
ancient Eurasian crossroads.

ceremony in London on June 17, 2017.

parade would be used to mark the official
birthday of the Sovereign. More than 600
guardsmen and cavalry make up the parade, a
celebration of the Sovereign's official birthday,
although the Queen's actual birthday is on April
21.
