The saqdari of the Rigi area stands on the slope above Kisiskhevi village in Telavi Municipality. Saqdari is a folk Georgian word for a church; this one also has a belfry.
Rigi is the name of this corner on the slopes of the Tsiv-Gombori range. A little lower stands a nameless village church, and the Virgin Mary church is active in Kisiskhevi itself.
Access is free at any time; the path runs along the slope, and sturdy shoes make it easier. The church and the belfry deserve careful treatment.
