About Gori
Gori is most famous for being the birthplace of Joseph Stalin. Today, surprisingly, it does not look much different from when Stalin ruled the USSR. Gori is a short drive fromUplistsikhe, an ancient Silk Road cave city and former regional center of pagan worship. The nameGorimay look and sound like the plural form of the Russian word for mountain (горы,GO-ry), but the name of Gori, incidentally meaning hill (singular) in Georgian, is much older than the first Russian contact with the Georgian kingdoms in the 1500s.
