Discover the Shekvetili Dendrological Park, a remarkable haven of biodiversity nestled along Georgia's Black Sea coast near the resort village of Shekvetili. Spanning over 60 hectares, this park is home to a diverse collection of local and exotic flora, making it a must-see destination for nature enthusiasts. The park's creation began in 2016 with the vision of Georgian businessman Bidzina Ivanishvili. While initial plans for a private villa and garden sparked controversy, the project evolved into a public dendrological park, officially opening in 2020. Today, the park stands as a testament to botanical diversity, featuring over 1,000 species of plants from five continents. The park is divided into sections, one dedicated to showcasing tree species endemic to Georgia, and another featuring exotic woody plants from around the world. Visitors can explore themed gardens, stroll along well-maintained paths, and relax by serene lakes. The park is also home to diverse bird species and animals, including flamingos, lemurs, and deer, adding to the park's allure. While the park's establishment faced some ecological concerns, including the uprooting and transportation of mature trees, it now serves as an educational center, fostering research and conservation efforts to protect Georgia's unique plant species.
