The church of St. George in Lahili also carries the Svan name Mkheris jgrag: jgrag is what Svaneti calls this saint, and the name is met all over the area.
Lahili is a village on the upper Enguri rich in shrines: three hundred metres away lie the ruins of the Lamaria Marian church, and a kilometre off the ruins of the church of St. Elijah. In neighbouring Kvanchianari, also about a kilometre away, works a church of the Archangel.
There are usually no regular services here, yet the shrine can be approached at any time. Follow the coordinates.
