The 11th-century orthodox Svanetian church in the village of Zhabeshi, which still has some of its ancient frescoes, is open to tourists.

The village of Zhabeshi opens its doors to tourists wishing to visit this church. The church is quite ancient, it was built in the period from X to XI century.

The facades of the building are lined with hewn stone, which gives it a unique and symmetrical shape. Looking at the middle arch on the east side, you can see an arched window with a narrow diameter, carved by the builders themselves, while the middle arch of the western wall gradually moves away from you, as if possessing a mind of its own.

Certainly, this construction fully reflects all the motifs and architectural solutions of the time. Looking closely at the walls of the temple, you will see a unique and very beautiful painting, which dates back to the XII century.

Once in front of the entrance to the church, you will understand the true intention of the architects, who built a small vestibule, covering the stone and expensive steps from cracks and destruction. However, despite all the beauty of the construction, there were people who tried to change the true appearance of the southern facades of the church, but it had little effect on the final aesthetic of the temple.

As a result, people who have been here claim that the Zhabesh Church of Christ the Savior is a unique and very picturesque place, and also has the status - a monument of national importance.
