I had always heard about the beautiful and majestic Caucasus Mountain Ranges. I, along with Nino and her brother, decided to head higher up to the Ski Resort of Gudauri. This is a city nestled among the snow peaks at 2,200 meters. It is around 120 km from the capital, Tbilisi, and is a popular holiday destination for many Georgian families. One can enjoy paragliding and horse riding here. There are many stalls selling fruits, boiled corn, and Shawarma. The snow-peaked mountains are very picturesque.
As we got out of our car, I caught a glimpse of a shop selling some exotic hats made from sheep fur. It caught my attention immediately, and I bought one cream-colored woolly hat. I wore it throughout our drive up the mountain ranges. The region is very cold, and there was a good deal of chilly wind blowing around, even in the summer months. Since it’s a famous ski resort, there are many hotels that keep travelers comfortable.

I was a bit tired, so I skipped paragliding, but I did manage to capture the beauty of the lush green mountain ranges. The mountains are very green, which gives them a dark green shade. With the blue sky in the background, they make for very beautiful scenery.
