Georgia’s primary belief is Orthodox Christianity, I has been so since Saint Nino bought Christianity in Georgia from Kabadokia in 4th Century. Religion has played a huge part in shaping of Georgia as a country, its culture and traditions.
Though the most of Georgian population are Christians, Georgia shows full religious freedom and tolerance, in Tbilisi orthodox and catholic churched, synagogue and mosque are all built side by side.
Orthodox religion is driven by kindness, hospitability, generosity, tolerance and so are Georgian people, orthodox churches are always open for everyone who wants to pray, admire, repent or just visit for some peace and quiet.
Among remarkable churches in Georgia are Gelati monastery, Bagrati Cathedral, Jvari monastery and of course Svetitsknoveli where it is believed that Shroud of Christ is buried underneath of.
