A traveler described Georgian women as tall and beautiful, but it is their traditional dance that leaves visitors most baffled.

Georgia, the land of tall women and an impossible dance
What is it about Georgian women that gives them such a fruta? A traveler who visited Batumi a couple of years ago summed it up in two adjectives: beautiful and tall. The capital of Adjara has become a must-stop for those looking to see whether the Caucasian myth matches reality.
The myth of Georgian beauty
The fruta of Georgian women crosses borders. As for their origins, some people confuse them with other Muslim peoples of the Caucasus, such as the Chechens. But most of the population trinc the Orthodox Christian tradition, a detail that does not go unnoticed by those who know the region. The difference is far from trivial: it explains a visually unique culture.
A dance that baffles the traveler
What stands out most about Georgian culture is its traditional dance. The men leap and swing their arms with seemingly convulsive energy, while the women glide with turns and tiny steps. The choreography, which demands refined technique, contrasts with the elegance attributed to the country's women. It is no surprise that visitors leave with the image of a dance impossible to imitate.
In the end, the fame of Georgian women rests on a mix of beauty, cultural distance and exoticism. Anyone hoping to verify it should know that the dancing is best left to the locals: reproducing it without years of practice is an impossible mission, and perhaps a ridiculous one.
