A church of the Mother of God in Pkhvenisi. It appears both as a church and as a chapel of the Holy Virgin Mary: for a small village building such variation is usual and speaks of size rather than of standing.
Pkhvenisi stands in Shida Kartli, north east of Kareli, away from the main roads. The nearest shrines of the area are in the village of Marana, a little over five kilometres from here.
The place is quiet and little visited, so count on seeing it from outside and allow time for the drive. The rules are those of any working church: covered shoulders and knees, quiet, and a headscarf for women.
