The Ascension church stands at Ganisi. The Ascension of the Lord is widely kept in Georgian villages, and this dedication is met with more often at mountain churches than at those of the valleys.
The Ganisi country lies in the mountains above the Georgian Military Road. The Tsetskhlisjvari tower stands about two and a half kilometres away, the Sharumianti Tsetskhlisjvari church three and a half, the old Lomisa church of Kvemo Mleta four.
The church is rural and its gates are opened by arrangement. The rules are the usual ones: covered shoulders and knees, a headscarf for women, quiet. The road here is a mountain one and drifts over in winter, so it is better to come in the warm season.
