A prayer place of Saint Panteleimon in Akhalsheni. Panteleimon was a physician and is honoured in church tradition as a healer: people turn to him for health, and his name is often borne by small shrines where one comes with a personal request.
The place stands in the western part of the Akhalsheni group, with its nearest neighbour very close: the prayer place of Saint Sophia ninety metres away. Further round are Saint Charalampos and the church of Saint George.
Small prayer places keep no order of their own and can be approached at any time. Keep to the usual restraint: quiet, covered shoulders and knees, and nothing moved.
