One of old Tbilisi's most emblematic structures is one of its newest – the higgledy-piggledy clock tower, like something out of a fairy tale, outside the Gabriadze puppet theatre. Built by puppet master Rezo Gabriadze during a renovation of his theatre a few years ago, it evokes the spirit not only of the theatre beside it but also, somehow, of the whole Old Town. On the hour, an angel pops out of a door near the top and strikes the bell outside with a hammer.
