Queen's Bath in Tbilisi's Abanotubani district is one of the sulfurous spring bathhouses in Georgia's historic Bath Quarter, where naturally warm thermal water has supported a continuously operating bathing culture since the fifth century CE. The name evokes the royal patronage that Tbilisi's thermal springs attracted across centuries of Georgian royal history, and the bathhouse's position in the UNESCO-listed Old Town of Tbilisi gives every visit a historical resonance that extends far beyond the bathing itself. Abanotubani's distinctive cluster of domed bathhouses — visible from the iconic Narikala Fortress above — collectively represent one of the world's most extraordinary surviving urban thermal bath districts, where an unbroken tradition of sulfurous hot spring bathing continues to animate the social and cultural life of a major European capital.
