Piruza is the name of a building that stands out from all other country houses, both in terms of its artistic design and its vibrant colors. It stands near the entrance to the main park of Borjomi. Mirza Reza Khan, an Iranian diplomat who served as the Iranian Consul General in Tbilisi from 1889 to 1895, constructed Piruza on a piece of land that he had earlier purchased with the permission of Nicholas Mikhailovich Romanov, Grand Duke and a Viceroy of the Caucasus (1863–1881).

Sergo Kobuladze, People's Artist of Georgia and laureate of the Shota Rustaveli Prize, was among the first generation of graduates from the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts. His creative legacy includes painting and graphic art, as well as theatrical design and photography. His contribution to scientific and research work is also significant.

Georgia’s geographical location has long positioned it as a natural crossroad of civilizations. Despite centuries of external influences, the country has managed to preserve its cultural identity. Today, as Georgia tries to re-establish itself on the world map, our goal—alongside developing common values and participating in global processes—is to safeguard and celebrate that identity. I believe Svaneti and its renovated museum play an important role in this endeavor.
