Parliament


The Georgian parliament building was built in 1948 during the Soviet era. Previously a cathedral stood on this site. Over the years the parliament building has been the rallying point for protesters and often the scene of violent conflict.

Thanks folks. Nice to be back - I was on CDP until a few months ago with a Munich photoblog.

I'm looking forward to following your Barcelona blog - it's one city I have never been too.
