Sakdari is the Georgian word for a church, and Ogondaanti here is a family name: one kin kept and cared for the building, and their name stayed in the title.
The ground is crowded even by Ujarma standards: the church ruins stand about four hundred and seventy metres away, the two storey church six hundred, the Kakhelebi church a little over a kilometre off. All of them lie around Ujarma, an old fortified place above the Iori valley.
There are no gates and no keeper here, so you can come at any hour. Family churches in Kakheti stay in the care of their kin, so the candles, cloths and everything left by the walls are better left untouched, and it is right to keep quiet, as a guest would.
