Stumbling upon this ancient sanctuary is like opening a book of whispered stories etched in stone. The walls may appear random at first, but they hold a silent rhythm that resonates with the soul, offering a uniquely unexpected sense of peace and connection. The surrounding garden seems like it hugs the church, lending a serene air of love and timeless beauty to the whole experience. It's a place where history breathes and the present stands still, inviting moments of quiet reflection.

Словно шагнул в историю и мгновение замерло. Камни стены неравномерны и полны характера, как сама жизнь. Внутри простота и покой, каждая деталь дышит древностью. За окнами сад словно обнимает это место, создавая атмосферу уюта и задумчивости. Здесь легко остановиться и послушать шёпот прошлого.

სამზადეებში ნეიმედ ჩაფლული ვიყავი, როდესაც ამ მშვენიერ არქიტექტურულ შედევრს მოვძებნი და მაგიური ატმოსფეროთი და სიყვარულის ბაღით მოხიბლული დავრჩი.

Удивительное место! Эта древняя кирпичная кощунница на склоне горы оставила яркое впечатление. В тишине природы и под шёпот ветра кажется, что время остановилось. Каменные стены будто дышат истиной давних времён, а внутренняя обстановка вызывает трепет. Каждый уголок впитал в себя историю, крик душ и тихую мольбу. Особая атмосфера покоя и древности заполняет сердце, а любопытные детали, такие как каменный стол, просто завораживают. Для души это настоящая находка.

Upon stepping into this ancient gem tucked away on the southern slope, an overwhelming sense of serenity embraced me. The stone walls, imperfect but proud, whispered stories of a time long past. A small window, like a gentle eye, let the light play upon the sacred altar. The simple grace of the place, with its untouched charm and poignant inscriptions, moved me deeply. It felt as though love and time itself had stood still in this quaint sanctuary. Worth every moment spent in quiet reflection.

Состояние памятника тяжелое: уровень земли вокруг храма поднят, необходимы археологические и очистные работы, памятник нуждается в консервации.
