The church of Pkhelshe village is dedicated to St George, and it is mentioned as the church of the Resurrection as well: both names hold to it at once.
Pkhelshe lies in the mountains of Mtskheta-Mtianeti, in Khevi. The nearest neighbouring shrine, the basilica of the Nativity of the Virgin in Sioni village, stands about a kilometre and four hundred metres away, and the church of St George in Garbani two and a half kilometres off.
The road here is a mountain one and drifts over in winter, so it is better to come in the warm season and in daylight. The church is rural and its gates are opened by arrangement. The rules are the usual ones: covered shoulders and knees, a headscarf for women, quiet.
