Dry Bridge | მშრალი ხიდი
The dry bridge rises above Kura's former sleeve, which was then drained. Hence the name. It was built a century and a half ago by an Italian architect.
At that time the bridge transported the inhabitants to Madatov island, and it in turn belonged to the Princes of Orbeliani. That's why they built the bridge over Kura in this place. And then, when in the 30s of XX century the river was drained, the bridge acquired its present name.

Flea Market | ძველმანების ბაზრობა
Right behind the dry bridge begins the famous flea market. This market is for amateurs, but it is included in the list of Tbilisi sights.
Of course, once in a while you do not have to and sometimes tourists can absolutely accidentally buy something they liked from the past. We are not a fan of antiques, but we are interested in two things.
