Kashuri is an important city in the Imereti region of western Georgia, located on the banks of the Rioni River, about 260 kilometers from the capital Tbilisi. As a regional transportation hub, it connects the main highways and railroad lines of Georgia's east and west, and is known as the "Gateway to Western Georgia". The city is about 280 meters above sea level and has a humid subtropical climate with four distinct seasons.
Khashuri has a long history, dating back to the Middle Ages, when it was a trading post. It flourished during the Soviet period due to industrial development, and today is dominated by agriculture (viticulture, citrus) and light industry, and is surrounded by several historical monuments and nature reserves. The pace of life in the city is relaxed and it retains a traditional Georgian cultural atmosphere.
Tourists often use Kashuri as a transit point to neighboring attractions such as Sataplia Nature Reserve or Kutaisi. Its position as a railroad junction makes it an ideal base for exploring western Georgia, and the local gastronomy and wine culture are also attractive.
