The Svetitskhoveli church stands in Shalauri village of Telavi Municipality. The name repeats that of the great cathedral in Mtskheta, which is common in Georgian villages.
Shalauri lies southeast of Telavi, between the town and the Gombori range. A kilometre from the church stands the second village church, dedicated to St Barbara.
Visits are free and modest dress is appropriate for services. A headscarf is useful for women, and quiet is expected inside.
