Church of the Mother of God in Dashbashi: Old Ruins
If you're wondering what to see in Georgia, this short overview is for you. Georgia's landmarks are breathtaking and will immerse you in the mysteries of ancient times.
And one such landmark is an ancient church in the southern part of Eastern Georgia. The Church of the Mother of God is a cultural heritage site of Georgia. The church is located in the Kvemo Kartli region, Tsalka municipality, in the center of the village of Dashbashi.
In the 19th century, the local Armenian population built a new church on the ruins of the ancient Georgian church. Today, this church is also in ruins; only the apse remains. According to the building plan, the church is a hall-type building with an apse oriented to the east.

The building's roof has collapsed, and its northern façade is completely destroyed. The church walls once bore inscriptions, which, unfortunately, have not survived to this day. There was also a stone with inscriptions in the churchyard.
In recent years, local residents have been clearing the interior and exterior of the church. The architectural structure and building stones remain to the east and north of the church. So you're sure to have something to see.
Enjoy your trip! And remember: Georgia's most beautiful places are yet to come!

Очень красивое место, от церкви так и тянет древностью, средневековьем, есть в этом что-то привлекательно тёмное.
