# Bzitagora Street - URL: https://explore-georgia.ge/en/tbilisi/samgori/varketili/bzitagora-street - Type: street - Microdistrict: Varketili - District: Samgori - City: Tbilisi - Coordinates: 41.6899, 44.8774 ## Overview **Bzitagora Street** (Georgian: ბზითაგორის ქუჩა) is a street in the **Samgori district** of Tbilisi, in **Mesame Masivi** (the 3rd Massive of Varketili), southeast of **Varketili** metro station. According to OpenStreetMap (OSM) data, the street is horseshoe-shaped: both of its ends join **Romanoz Khomleli Street**, and in the south it makes a turn. According to OSM, the street is about **920 m** long in total (two sections of about 430 and 490 m). It is mapped as a residential street with an asphalt surface and several speed bumps. Going by the former names stored in OSM, the street used to consist of two separate streets: the western section was **Aerodromi Dasakhleba 12th Street** (Airfield Settlement 12th Street) and the eastern section **Aerodromi Dasakhleba 14th Street**. ## Location The western (northwestern) end of the street is on Romanoz Khomleli Street, at about 41.6932° N, 44.8752° E. From there the street runs south and after about 430 m, at about 41.6898° N, 44.8769° E, makes a turn where **Brilebi Street** (formerly Aerodromi Dasakhleba 13th Street) joins it. On the western section, shortly before the turn, the stepped **Aerodromi Dasakhleba 9th Street** connects to it. After the turn the street heads back north: after about 115 m **Levan Machavariani Street** joins it, and then Brilebi Street once more. The eastern end is again on Romanoz Khomleli Street, at about 41.6937° N, 44.8762° E — about 100 m from the western end. The midpoint of the street’s length is at about 41.6899° N, 44.8774° E. In OSM and Nominatim address data the whole street belongs to **Mesame Masivi**, in the Samgori district; the postcode is 0163. East of the street lie the blocks of Varketili Zemo Plato, and to the south the blocks of the 3rd Massive of Varketili. The nearest metro station is **Varketili** (the terminus of the Akhmeteli–Varketili line), about 380 m from the western end of the street in a straight line. ## Name The meaning of the name and the date of naming could not be confirmed: no document on naming the street, or on renaming Aerodromi Dasakhleba 12th and 14th streets, could be found on matsne.gov.ge. The nominative form of the name is **Bzitagora**; in national romanisation the street is therefore Bzitagora Street, the form also used in OSM. A toponym of the same name — “Bzitagora” — is recorded as a place northeast of the village of Gldani (in a list of toponyms of the Gldaniskhevi river basin), but a link between the street’s name and that place is not confirmed. The street name also appears in official documents: according to order No. 32/n of the Minister of Education and Science of 25 February 2022, the address of Tbilisi **Public School No. 146** is 4 Bzitagora Street. ## Nearby places - **Public School No. 146** (4 Bzitagora Street) — by the northwestern part of the street, about 40 m. - **Kindergarten No. 115** — about 130 m. - **Public School No. 182 named after Gogita Kiknadze** — about 310 m. - **Varketili Central Park named after Alisher Navoi** — about 315 m. - **Public School No. 117** — about 370 m. - **Varketili metro station** — about 380 m.
