An interactive museum-village created by a single master, Kemal Turmanidze, tells the story of traditional Adjarian life through wooden models, music, and memory.
Borjgalo Ethnographic Museum is a unique place created by one man, artist and woodcarver Kemal Turmanidze, who dedicated 30 years of his life to this project. The museum occupies an area of 3000 square meters, immersed in greenery. Here you will see not only expositions, but also an artificial waterfall 11 meters high, as well as walking paths.
The museum is a complex of 30 ethnographic houses whose design reflects the daily life, traditions, and culture of different epochs in Adjara. Thousands of artifacts assembled by the creator himself are displayed inside. Visitors can view models of residential and outbuildings, as well as figurines of people dressed in traditional clothing engaged in various crafts and daily activities. All of this is accompanied by folk music, allowing complete immersion in the atmosphere of the past.
Visiting this museum is a fascinating and informative journey that allows for a better understanding of the history and culture of the Adjarian people. The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 17:30. Admission tickets cost 15 GEL for adults and 5 GEL for children aged 7 to 14, while admission is free for children under 7. Guided tours here are conducted by the museum's founder himself or his daughter, both of whom speak Russian fluently.
