What's the timezone history of Tbilisi?
Georgia keeps UTC+4 year-round, with no daylight saving, the offset shared with neighbouring Azerbaijan and Armenia across the southern Caucasus. The position places the country four hours ahead of Greenwich and an hour ahead of Moscow, useful for a state that has increasingly oriented its trade and politics westward toward Europe while sitting at the far eastern edge of the continent. The compact size of the country means the single offset serves it comfortably throughout the year.
What are the working hours in Tbilisi?
Government, trade, tourism, and a growing technology and services sector anchor the working economy of a country that has made itself unusually easy to do business in, with the wine for which Georgia claims one of the world's oldest traditions running through its culture and exports. The working day runs broadly 10:00 to 18:00 or 19:00 on weekdays. The main closures follow the Georgian Orthodox calendar, with a Christmas in early January and an Easter that is the most important festival of the year.
Where is Tbilisi?
Tbilisi lies in a narrow valley of the Mtkvari river in the Caucasus, the capital of Georgia, a country bridging the mountainous land between the Black Sea and the Caspian. The metropolitan area holds around 1.2 million people. Founded, by legend, where warm springs were discovered, it grew at a crossroads of the old Silk Road trade routes between Europe and Asia, and its old town of carved wooden balconies and sulphur baths reflects centuries of Persian, Russian, and European influence.
