Stunning views. A mandatory place to stop. Impressions are guaranteed. And to sit in a cafe, take a break, enjoy the views and drink delicious coffee - "must hev" for the driver!

An excellent, iconic bridge for stopping and a photo is a symbol of friendship of peoples. We organized a collection of money for any reason (parking, toilet...) some retail outlets, equipment rental. Cafe right in the arch, photos for money. It's a little annoying and I think that the fees don't help the arch in any way...

One of the most beautiful places in Georgia in my opinion. Convenient access. The arch itself is beautiful. And there's nothing to say about the stunning views from the observation deck.... It is very convenient that when you drive along the Georgian military road, it is impossible not to notice it.

I could have put a five, but the level of landscaping and service does not reach this mark, but nature itself, snowy peaks even in summer, the most beautiful landscapes of the gorge, definitely deserve a higher assessment, but this is no longer a human creation, but a painting of the Almighty, which cannot be appreciated

I definitely recommend you to visit! A wonderful, bright, mosaic arch telling about the friendship of the peoples of Russia and Georgia. A truly stunning view opens from the observation deck! But the service in the morning leaves much to be desired... Although there is a public toilet, worth 1lari (extremely fragrant...) I'll start with the fact that we arrived at the pass at about 9 Moscow time, at 10 local time, we planned to have a snack in a cafe with a beautiful view, but in Georgia private shops do not open until 12, therefore, after admiring the expanses and feeding the remnants of a snack to a huge flock (at least 20) of exceptionally good-natured, but extremely persistent dogs We moved on.

An amazing place! The energy of the mountains, the energy of the memorial itself. What a gorgeous view of the mountains and the gorge opens from this place. It's a crime to drive through it. We must definitely stop!

An interesting place, the first viewing platform after entering from the Russian Federation. An entourage place! Take a thermos flask, a candy bar, good weather and a great mood are provided!

I am writing a review as a warning to everyone else who has not been yet.
The place itself is amazing.
On the left
But a public parking place is rented by the locals for 3 GEL.
They put up the sign themselves and came up with the law themselves .( and they come to you at the end when you leave )
Life Hack:
To avoid getting into a fight with the locals and not spoil your vacation . PARK your car along the road.

The place is historical, great view. To feel the Soviet heritage, and it was, and no matter what modern ideologists say, but those who are older remember the Soviet period with warm memories. You can come here after crossing the border, walk, stretch and have a snack.

The arch is located in a very picturesque place near Gudauri at an altitude of 2384 meters. It has a great view of the Devil's Valley.
There are beautiful snow caps in spring, and juicy bright green meadows in summer.
There is a large mosaic in the inner part of the arch.
It is gratifying that this monument has been preserved today.
One of the most beautiful places in Georgia.

It's a great place, good views, they charge a little money for parking, it's worth stopping by. We got into good weather, it was very beautiful. There is a little smell of horses that tourists ride. There is a cafe.

An atmospheric place. It's breathtaking. But the berry sellers are greedy and cheating , and the money collector is a boor in the paid parking lot . as it is, everything is fine. There's a nice cafe called schorley under the arch

There is no barrier at the entrance, but there is some kind of puppy on a BMW and collects money from those leaving. He wanted to collect from me, but was ignored by me. After that, I drove and he pretended that he was taking something from the ground and wanted to throw it into the car. I got out of the car to him, suddenly his intentions are serious, but he was not capable of anything except that false swing.
And you send it and don't be afraid of anything. He won't do anything to you, because there are a lot of police nearby, to whom he will tell that he is a beggar. If the service is paid, then a barrier is installed at the entrance from random visitors who do not want to pay.

We were there in January 2024. The place is amazing, the roof is blown away by the beauty. Mountains, powerful energy, the monument itself, which offers an indescribable view of the mountain gorge. A lot of people from all over the World- Filipinos were tumbling like children in the snow with joy - they saw him for the first time, all the people were happy, friendly, ask to take a picture- no problem....
And enough about parking for 1 GEL and a paid toilet....It's a shame to read...as if this is the main impression that people have received here...
It's a must-visit, it's unforgettable.....

The view of the mountains itself is beautiful (photo below), there are a lot of people (to take personal photos you need to have magic, because the background of people is always present).
the swing is very fragile and shaky.
We haven't been to the institution.

Unwashed villagers are standing at the entrance, behind them is a booth, like a toilet in the village that performs the functions of a gatehouse. And it is unclear on what basis they are asking to pay for entry, parking is not equipped in any way, of course there are no checks, I am sure this amateur activity is 100% illegal. For example, I did not have any cash with me, this nedorozh refused to let me in, saying turn around. I stopped by, under his insults and threats, went up for 2-3 minutes to see the views. As a result, this subhuman spoiled the whole mood, I understand that it is impossible to conclude about the nation one by one... But still, the sediment remained. At the same time, of course, cars on local numbers come in without payment, apparently they bought a subscription))

The Arch of Friendship between the peoples of Georgia and Russia was built in a very beautiful place. If you carefully examine the mosaic canvas, you can see the fairy-tale heroes, the heroes of the epic of our peoples. But we didn't have much time, so we just admired the beautiful views from the observation decks.

On the Georgian Military Road, at the entrance to the Russian border beyond the pass, stop at the grandiose monument! Located on a mountain, I had to walk through deep snow, surrounded by people who were not used to the cold and even more so to snow drifts. Indians. Negroes. And many Georgians rarely see snow.
But beautiful views!
The monument itself is revealed from different angles in different ways. And also a ski base, a lift.
It's a pity the toilet is inconveniently located, a paid and unfriendly person is guarding.

We stopped on the way from Vladikavkaz to Tbilisi. The views are simply gorgeous. The mountains are fascinating, and what kind of air is there... It is impossible for them to breathe enough. It's a very beautiful place. And the whole road is quite picturesque.

Initially, I did not know the name of this attraction, but I was surprised by the number of tourists staying at this place. It is very beautiful and monumental! If you get there in clear weather, then be sure to pay attention to the heart-shaped lake below, there is an entrance that motorist tourists will like, it is not fast and it is advisable to do this on an SUV, obstacles may occur in the form of precisely non-jealousies where the geometric patency of the car will play a role. The road to the lake is easy to read on the Yandex map.

Beautiful views, there is a cafe. The toilets are sad. On the way to the border, it is not difficult to drop by. It would not hurt for someone to refine the arch for the photo)

It is quite a popular place to visit on the way along the Georgian Military Road. In fact, this observation deck is suitable only for a single visit. As a symbol of friendship, the monument is interesting, but nothing more should be expected. Yes - the views around are really gorgeous! To anyone who will pass by for the first time, I recommend visiting, watching and boldly driving on. The review is valid for August 2023.

Stunning view of the Krestovy Pass, an arch in the style of Soviet architecture with a mazaika in the same theme. A mountain river flows through the gorge below and there is a small lake, in general, an excellent location for contemplating the mountain beauties of Georgia

There is almost no place for emotions in life. And this place is one of the few that evoked a whole half of emotions in me. You think about being, about your life. And the transience of his life and the immortality of the mountains.

The first place of worship from the guidebooks of Georgia, which is seen by road travelers after crossing the border.
Worthy of attention.
Parking is paid. Payment at check-out is 3 GEL. We settled by giving 100₽.
There are a lot of stalls with souvenirs, national goods, fast food in the parking lot. There is a minicafe.
Great view of the canyon. There is a funny lake at the bottom...
the Peoples' Friendship Arch is interesting. The history of a non-existent country.Nicely.
Worth a visit. I recommend.

We were passing through on March 31, we thought to go out to take a closer look, but no one cleans this place, everything is noticeable with snow, so we looked from the road. Apparently, this memory and monument to Georgians are not needed (but it's a pity. In summer, you can see there are tents, the market is open, but not when it's snowing

The arch itself has undergone repairs. The views are very beautiful, especially in summer. However, it is noticeable that the attitude of the local population has not changed for the better. Previously, I wanted to return to Georgia, but now this desire has been repulsed. If you have never been there, it may make sense to go, but do not limit yourself to Georgia, plan a route through Georgia to Yerevan and you will not regret it. There I got a storm of positivity and tasted delicious dishes and gorgeous cognac)).
