Between Propaganda and Executions - Soviet Walking tour
Meet your guide and step into the Soviet-era heart of Tbilisi. This walk takes place not in hidden residential courtyards, but along one of the city’s main historic avenues — a prestigious axis even during Soviet times, lined with monumental government buildings, cultural institutions, and symbols of state power. As you walk past imposing ministries, the former Soviet movie house, and the Parliament of Georgia, you’ll explore architecture designed to project strength, control, and ideology. Many of these buildings still bear visible marks of conflict — bullet holes and scars that were never erased, silent reminders of moments when history turned violent. But this tour goes beyond architecture. Standing in the very places where events unfolded, you’ll trace the footsteps of the most defining protests and movements of the past decades. Through archival photographs from the 1990s, 80s, 30s — and even earlier — you’ll see how these same streets witnessed parades, propaganda rallies, crackdowns, and mass demonstrations. From Soviet control and censorship to forbidden music and underground resistance, from state-imposed silence to explosive public protest, you’ll uncover how ordinary people shaped the destiny of a nation. Students, journalists, families, youth movements — individuals who stood together through fear, sacrifice, shock, and ultimately rebirth. This is not just a political history tour. It’s a walk through power and resistance, ideology and identity — told through the buildings, the streets, and the people who refused to remain silent.
