1. Built by Rezo Gabriadze in 2010, this leaning, fairytale-like tower is one of Tbilisi’s most beloved landmarks. 2. It stands beside the Gabriadze Marionette Theater on Shavteli Street, just steps from Anchiskhati Basilica. 3. The tower looks crooked and magical - decorated with handmade tiles and a giant clock. 4. Every hour, a golden angel pops out and rings a bell with a hammer. 5. Twice a day (12:00 and 19:00), a small puppet show plays inside the tower: “The Circle of Life,” showing birth, love, and death. 6. Gabriadze said building it felt like traveling back to the Byzantine Empire - that’s the spirit behind its design. 7. It’s not just a photo spot - it’s a living piece of art, full of emotion and storytelling. 8. Come early to grab a good spot for the show, or just enjoy the quirky charm anytime. 9. Free to watch, no ticket needed for the hourly angel or daily puppet show. 10. A must-see for families, artists, and anyone who loves whimsy and wonder. 🕰️ Tip: Visit around 11:50 or 18:50 to catch the full puppet show. Башня с часами, Тбилиси Построена Резо Габриадзе в 2010 году. Каждый час выходит ангел, дважды в день — кукольный спектакль «Круг жизни». Волшебное место рядом с театром. საათის კოშკურა, თბილისი შექმნა რეზო გაბრიაძემ 2010 წელს. ყოველ საათში ანგელოზი რეკავს ზარს, ხოლო 12:00 და 19:00 საათზე - სპექტაკლი „ცხოვრების წრე“. ზღაპრული ადგილი თეატრთან.
