Tskhinvali is the capital of South Ossetia

Tskhinvali has an approximate population of around 32,180 people and you can typically expect to pay around £3.00p for an equivalent pint of lager or beer.

The Tskhinvali Mountain is considered one of the highest peaks in Russia. It is also one of the most beautiful and photogenic places in Russia. It's located in the far north of the country, in the region of Arkhangai in the Tver republic. The height of this mountain is 725 metres. And according to local legend, when the Russian monarch Tsar Alexander the Great came to visit it, he was greeted by a majestic winter scene of the Tskhinvali Mountains which stretched across the whole northern region of the country.

When the Black Sea merchant seamen decided to build a new harbour in the middle of the Tskhinvali Mountains, they asked the local inhabitants of the region to construct a town around the harbour, in an attempt to make it a tourist attraction. And to this day, the town of Tskhinvali is a thriving metropolis - it has its own airport and railway network and the city has a busy port. There are many resorts in the region, some of them quite old and others of a modern vintage, and many of them are dotted around the harbour area. Most of them have small fishing boats and summer houses on the piers, where the local men socialise and have a great time.

The town of Tskhinvali itself is an old quarter and it is built on the slopes of the Kaspachy Mountains. But because of the popularity of the resort, a number of hotels and restaurants have mushroomed there, catering for all tastes and budgets. The most popular hotels are those situated on the piers, next to the sea. There are plenty of good restaurants and bars and a number of fine shops. The Tskhinvali Restaurant offers a special cocktail on ice, named after the hotel itself. Other fabulous restaurants in the area include the Golden Bar, the Black Sea, the Escape Club and the Dorokkok restaurant.
