A freshly renovated cafe in one of Tbilisi's most popular recreational parks is now accessible to blind and visually impaired visitors in a bid to become an example of unrestricted public space.
The New Mziuri Park Cafe on Georgian capital's Chavchavadze Ave is a popular destination for residents and visitors of the city looking to get away from urban noise in a cosy spot surrounded by murals and nature. Local children's activist and photographer Anna Goguadze revealed a new initiative to make the cafe's menus readable to those with partial or full absence of vision.
Goguadze said the New Mziuri Cafe was now the first cafe in the country to offer menus made in Braille tactile system, an international script helping blind or visually impaired to read information from paper or digital screen. The announcement was made by the disabled activist on social media and came with an example of the cafe's menu in Braille script.
