The villages offer a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich cultural heritage of the Abkhaz people. Here local highlanders still preserve traditional two-voiced songs, which are performed to the accompaniment of folk musical instruments, such as acharpani and apkhiats. The acharpani, which was a popular instrument among local shepherds, is still considered magical and symbolizes the wealth and historical heritage of the region. This unique instrument has survived only in the villages of the Gumista valley, and its sounds take us to the distant past of Abkhazian cultural heritage. Not only the musical heritage, but also the beliefs and religious practices of Abkhazia are part of the unique culture of this region. According to the local pagan religion, Abkhazia is considered a sacred place inhabited by seven holy places.
