Tusheti (Georgian: თუშეთი, romanized: tusheti; Bats: თუშითა, romanized: tushita)[1] is a historic region in northeast Georgia. A mountainous area, it is home to the Tusheti National Park. By the conventional definition of the Europe-Asia boundary as following the watershed of the Greater Caucasus, Tusheti is geographically a European part of Georgia.[2]
