If you visit the city in May it is worth to take part in the city’s most important holiday called "Kutaisoba", celebrated on the 2nd of May. On this day people crowd into the central park and celebrate together. One can see traditional Georgian dances and you can hear folk music.

Exploring Kutaisi on foot is the best way to get to know this 3000 year old city. To feel the vibe of the place walk around the old district Mtsvane Kvavila, enjoy the view of Kutaisi from the Bagrati Cathedral, visit the Jewish district and its old Synagogue, take a picture on the White Bridge with a kid holding two hats, talk to the local vendors at local bazzars and when tired sit on a bench in the city park and watch the world go by.

Within 20 minutes walking distance from the centre of Kutaisi (at the end of Gorki Street) a path leads through scenic meadows and forests to the Mindori Hill hill with beautiful views of Kutaisi, the two monasteries Gelati and Motzameta, surrounding mountains including Mountain Khvamli and the Sataplia Nature Reserve. The route is ideal for trekking, a cycling tour or an off-road trip. It is a perfect place for an afternoon picnic, an evening bonfire or for camping under the stars.

The park is located on 1 Vazha-Pshavela Street, Kutaisi, at the top of the hill with one of the most beautiful views of the city. Its main attraction is a fun park great for a day out with children. You can get there on a cable car which goes from the city centre above the Rioni River. Once you get hungry you can try tasty Georgian food in a traditional Imeretian restaurant located in the park.
