Kazbegi has never been to Georgia for nothing

Believe that everyone's recognition of Georgia starts with the photos of Mount Kazbek. Here lies the church closest to heaven⛪️—the Holy Trinity Church, which stands particularly solitary against the backdrop of the snowy mountains. If you go to Georgia and don't visit Mount Kazbek, it's truly a wasted trip😭 Mount Kazbek is the sacred mountain of the Caucasians, with Kazbegi peak at an altitude of 5033 meters. Although it is the third highest peak in Georgia, it is the most magnificent one among the Caucasus Mountains. 📜Legend has it that Prometheus, the fire-stealer🔥 in Greek mythology, was chained to this mountain by Zeus. The Holy Trinity Church of Stepantsminda, perched among the clouds☁️ at an altitude of 2170 meters, is known as 'the church closest to the sky in the world'. This church was built in the 14th century, located among the clouds at an altitude of 2170 meters, backed by the Kazbek snow mountain of over 5000 meters. From the town of Stepantsminda, people can gaze👀 at this sacred church and the snowy mountain from afar. The Holy Trinity Church on Mount Kazbek is different from those uniquely shaped, eye-catching church buildings in Europe🤔. It is built in a simple and rustic style, blending with nature, and the entire landscape is not abrupt but enough to shake the soul. In Georgia, there is a belief that to get closer to God, one must make an effort, and only true believers will overcome the numerous difficulties of the mountains👣 to reach the church at the top. This church embodies this spirit of faith. ‼️If you want to see the golden glow of the sunrise on the mountain🏔️, you need to check the weather and sunrise time in advance, and arrive at the viewing spot early to have a chance to see it. ‼️If you want to see the snowy mountains, it is best to go from November to April, otherwise the snow❄️ will melt.
