Tbilisi's Stonehenge


After doing a little bit of research I found out that this monument is a massive art project called The Chronicle of Georgia (or The History of Georgia)

The monument consists of massive pillars with horizontal pillars across the top.  The pillars are decorated with scenes from Jesus life and the history of Georgia.  It was designed by a well known Georgian artist Zurab Tsereteli.

All in a row.  I'm not sure if these are kings or saints or something else


One of the panels depicting Georgian History or Religion



These things are big.  Check out the size of the seat in the bottom left.
