What to watch out for
The square is the city's main transport hub, so hold children's hands and cross only through the underground passages, not at street level.
The passages involve stairs, so prams and strollers need a little planning.
Family-friendly places nearby
Rike Park is within walking distance, with open space and fountains — a calmer environment than the square itself.
The cable car to Narikala and the funicular to Mtatsminda are both interesting for children.
- Rike Park — open space and fountains
- Cable car to Narikala — a short ride with views
- Funicular — Mtatsminda Park
- National Museum — indoor option for bad weather
Practical tips
It is better to visit in the morning or evening, when there are fewer people and less traffic.
Bring water and a light snack — though there are plenty of cafés in the centre.
