Built in 1892 by the consul of Iran Mirza Riza Khan, the bright blue Firuza palace is at the entrance of Borjomi’s Mineral Water Park. The architecturally savvy onlooker will distinguish the unique blend of Persian, Georgian, and European elements that the building encapsulates. Firuza’s wooden windows, decorative paintings, and impressive mirrors are a style uncommon in Georgia, adding to its cultural significance not only for the town of Borjomi but for the country as a whole. The building has been repurposed into the 4 star Golden Tulip Borjomi luxury hotel, where you can stop by for a meal or a quick drink at the restaurant and bar.
