The church of St Elijah stands in Kariaki village of Tsalka Municipality.
The village lies on the Tsalka plateau, north of the district centre. Places with Greek names are common here: Greeks settled in this area from the nineteenth century, and the traces show in the names of villages and churches. Two kilometres away, in Akhalsheni, stands a church of the Assumption.
Visits are free and modest dress is appropriate for services. A headscarf is useful for women, and quiet is expected inside.
