The cathedral, now in ruins, has gone down as a masterpiece in the history of medieval Georgian architecture.
A distinct landmark in the scenery of central Kutaisi, the cathedral rests upon the top of Uk'imerioni Hill. It was built in the early years of the 11th century, during the reign of King Bagrat III due to which it was called "Bagrati" Cathedral, i.e., Bagrat's cathedral. An inscription on the north wall reveals that the floor was laid in "chronicon 223", i.e., 1003. In 1692, it was devastated in an explosion by the Ottoman troops, which had invaded the Kingdom of Imereti. The incident caused the cupola and ceiling to collapse leaving the cathedral in its present state.
The conservation and restoration works, as well as archaeological studies, which began in 1952, are still underway. In 1994, the Bagrati Cathedral, together with the Gelati Monastery, was included in the UNESCO World Heritage Site list as a single entity. In 2001, the cathedral was restored to the Georgian Orthodox Church. It is now of limited use for worship services, but attracts many pilgrims and tourists. It is also frequently used as a symbol of the whole city of Kutaisi, being one of its main tourist attractions.
La cathédrale de Bagrati ( Bagratis tadzari) est une cathédrale construite au XIe siècle dans la ville de Kutaisi (région d'Iméréthie), en Géorgie. Aujourd'hui en ruines, elle est un chef-d'oeuvre de l'architecture médiévale géorgienne.
Située sur la colline Uk'imerioni, elle est construite au début du XIe siècle pendant le règne du roi Bagrat III, d'où son nom, signifiant « la cathédrale de Bagrat ». Une inscription sur le mur septentrional révèle que le plancher fut installé en « chronicon 223 », donc 1003 au calendrier julien.
Elle est dévastée par des bombes des troupes ottomanes en 1692 ; ceux-ci étaient en train d'envahir le royaume d'Iméréthie. Cet incident cause l'effondrement de la coupole et du toit, laissant ainsi la cathédrale en l'état dont on la voit aujourd'hui.
Les travaux de conservation et de restauration ainsi que des études archéologiques sont en cours depuis 1952.
Elle est ajoutée à la liste du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO depuis 1994, ex-aequo avec le monastère de Ghélati, et en 2001 elle est rendue à l'Église orthodoxe apostolique de Géorgie. Les cérémonies religieuses y sont célébrées de manière limitée, mais elle attire beaucoup de pèlerins et de touristes et est souvent utilisée comme symbole de la ville de Kutaisi.

The area came under Roman influence in the first centuries A.D. and Christianity became the state religion in the 330s. Domination by Persians, Arabs, and Turks was followed by a Georgian golden age (11th-13th centuries) that was cut short by the Mongol invasion of 1236. Subsequently, the Ottoman and Persian empires competed for influence in the region. Georgia was absorbed into the Russian Empire in the 19th century. Independent for three years (1918-1921) following the Russian revolution, it was forcibly incorporated into the USSR until the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991. An attempt by the incumbent Georgian government to manipulate national legislative elections in November 2003 touched off widespread protests that led to the resignation of Eduard SHEVARDNADZE, president since 1995. New elections in early 2004 swept Mikheil SAAKASHVILI into power along with his National Movement party. Progress on market reforms and democratization has been made in the years since independence, but this progress has been complicated by two civil conflicts in the breakaway regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. These two territories remain outside the control of the central government and are ruled by de facto, unrecognized governments, supported by Russia. Russian-led peacekeeping operations continue in both regions.

But not just a businessman as we might think of them. He was a character such as might step out of a novel of the old world. He was creative, quick and humorous, always ready for a clever act. As a customer chose goods, the kinto took a silk shawl from his silver belt and used it as a kind of balance. In this dance there is an oriental sense of rhythm, extravagant dance steps and humorous and playful gestures. We find a delightful blend of slapstick and virtuosity in this colorful dance.
