The building at Zeda Bakhvi is known both as a church and as a chapel: for small forms such duality is ordinary, the boundary between them is blurred, and we give both versions.
The landmark here is the bridge over the river rather than a street. Such references are common in mountain and foothill Georgia, where streets in the usual sense do not exist while everyone knows the bridge. Zeda Bakhvi, Upper Bakhvi, lies in the foothills east of Ozurgeti, and the village has a lower namesake.
No dating has become attached to the building. You can come at any time of day, and there is no infrastructure at all. Dress soberly and treat the walls with care.
📌 In brief
- A small form, referred to both as a church and as a chapel
- Zeda Bakhvi village in the foothills east of Ozurgeti, Guria
