<p>After surfing on You Tube I come up on this place. It is breathtaking. Similar to my homeland Bosnia, but with much higher mountains and peaks.<br />
Svaneti is historic province in today Georgia, in the northwestern part of the country. It got name by the ethnic <a title="Svan People" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svan_people" target="_blank">Svans</a> (ethnic subgroups of the Georgians). Svaneti is mountains region with 3000-5000 m high mountains. Highest mountain in Georgia Mount Shkara is located here with its peak at 5201 meters. Svaneti is a southern part of Greater Caucasus. Lower regions bellow 1800 m are covered by forests, 1800-3000 meters are grasslands and meadows, while eternal ice is above 3000 m of sea level. Lower regions and valleys are characterized by a long and warm summers and with cold and snowy winters&#8230; Above 2000 m, summers are short and cool, and long and cold winters&#8230; Large part of this region lies over 3000 m and actualy dont have a real summer. It looks like that Svaneti is also very popular alpinistic destination&#8230;  Also Svans ethno music is great and Svans are really old ethnic grupation with rich history since they are first mentioned at 3rd-4th century.
