Things to do in February

  • Sukhum Botanical Garden offers a bamboo avenue and an old Caucasian lime tree. Winter access is restricted, so this option depends on checking access with the garden.
  • The Abkhazian State Museum offers displays about the region’s nature, archaeology and traditional culture. Its indoor galleries are an option when rain interrupts walks.
  • An evening performance at the Fazil Iskander Russian Drama Theatre is another option. The current programme shows which productions fall on your travel dates.
