Transit “Map” Fare Card from Tbilisi, Georgia

Having seen @transitmaps’ post with the Japanese travelcard reminded me to post the MetroMoney card I got in Tbilisi, Georgia. The drawings show different modes of transport available in the city (metro, bus, minibus (marshrutka)) and have absolutely no resemblance to the actual metro network, which consists of two lines.

Figuring out all the labels is not too easy – if you happen to speak Georgian, share them in the comments below. However, I did look at the large letters: Metromani and the top-centre smaller label: Gagarin square – which is not even a metro station. Dear readers, please do not use this card for orientation. I warned you.

Another transit map-themed fare card, this one from Tbilisi, the capital of the Caucasian country of Georgia. However, it’s important to note that – unlike the Japanese Passnet card – this is not a map at all, but stylised illustrations of a Metro train (centre), a bus (top left), and a mini bus (top right).

    Hey! nice post. I remember once turning my Tbilisi Metroman and looking at the drawing, realizing it resembled the transport modes. hehee. Here are the translations of Georgian on the cart: https://shottr.cc/s/1QVO/SCR-20250122-2jf.png

    These are the large junction spot names: streets, avenues, one square and one bridge.
