It is set among the mountains in a picturesque ravine, 25 km south-west of the town of Tetritsqaro in Kvemo Kartli Province. The monastic complex comprises the Church of the Mother of God, a bell tower, the ruins of subsidiary buildings, and a circuit wall. Music by Shvidkatsa Official - მას საქართველო ჰქვია
