The ruins of a church lie at Uriuli, the site of a deserted village, in the surroundings of Avkveti. Nasoplari in Georgian means a former village: no households are left, yet the walls still stand.

The area is hilly and lies between Kaspi and Gori, south of the Kura valley. The St. George churches of Avkveti and Danakhvisi stand in the neighbouring spots, and Khovle Iitsikhe with its church is a couple of kilometres north.

Access is free at any time, and the path runs through grass and shrubs. The walls and stones deserve care: nothing is touched or taken away.

    საბჭოთა პერიოდის სტატისტიკის თანახმად, 1940 წელს სოფელ ურიულში 20 ოჯახი იყო რეგისტრირებული. 1987 წლამდე, თითოეულ სოფელში ოჯახების რაოდენობა შემცირდა. მოსახლეობის დიდი ნაწილი ბარის სოფლებში გადავიდა. ქართულ-ოსური კონფლიქტის დროს სოფელი თითქმის დაცარიელდა.
