Zugdidi (Georgian and Mingrelian: ზუგდიდი) is a city in the Western Georgian historical province of Mingrelia (Samegrelo). It is situated in the north-west of that province. 318 km. from Tbilisi, 25 km. from Black sea coast. The city is a capital of the Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region which combines Samegrelo (Mingrelia) and Svaneti. The name `Zugdidi` means `big/great hill` in Mingrelo-Lazian (Colchian) language. Architectural sights of this city are Queen`s palace and Niko`s palace (now the Dadiani Palace museums), Vlakerna St. Virgin and Mantskhvar-kari Churches. There are also an old Botanical Garden (Queen`s Garden) and the city boulevard.

Napoleon’s death mask is on display in the Dadiani Palace Museum in Zugdidi, but the main treasure of this museum is St. Virgin`s Chasuble.
