The church stands in the Bitsmendi locality by Jighaura village. The name Bitsmendi belongs to the whole district, and several churches here carry it.
The second Bitsmendi church, Kviratskhoveli, stands less than four hundred metres away, and two more of the same name, of the Mother of God and of the Exaltation, rise a kilometre off by Tsinamdzghvriantkari village. So one name is held by four churches of two neighbouring villages.
The gates are opened by arrangement, and it is best to ask in the village. The rules are the usual ones: covered shoulders and knees, a headscarf for women, quiet. Since the name here is shared by several churches, steer by the coordinates rather than by the name.
