Khashuri
Khashuri (Georgian: ხაშური) is a town in central Georgia. It is located on the Mtkvari River.
Khashuri is first mentioned in the 1693 document. Modern Khashuri was founded in 1872 as a modest railway halt called "Mikhaylovo" after Grand Duke Michael Nikolaevich of Russia, Viceroy of the Caucasus. In 1917, it was renamed into Khashuri. Granted a city status in 1921, it was known as Stalinisi after Joseph Stalin from 1928 to 1934. It is now part of the Shida Kartli mkhare (region) and center of the Khashuri raioni (district).
