I was there in October 2024. It takes my breath away from such a Shrine. Time flows steadily in the monastery. I want to enjoy the beauty and silence. There is no daily fuss. You look at how the icons are made and admire how much effort and patience is invested in the manufacture of these shrines. I recommend everyone to visit here. An unforgettable place of power.

A very beautiful place the temple was built around the 6th century, the powerful energy of this place is felt, there are a lot of ancient icons in the temple, near the temple you can admire wonderful views of nature, one of the sources of the Gumista river flows nearby, near the temple you can see animals that are kept for donations, such as pigeons, peacocks, ostriches and deer, not When reaching the temple, there is a holy place with a font. The icy water is considered a holy spring at any time of the year, it flows directly from under the mountain. The road to the temple is good, a little serpentine, 30 minutes from the center of Sukhumi.

The place is very beautiful. The place is holy. There is also a grave of St. Basilisk nearby, and a river with holy water. From the river, you can collect water in a container (it is equipped where to collect it), and in it people do not know how to say it correctly, they wash themselves or something. The water is cold, but after taking a dip, you don't feel the cold for some reason. The truth is a shallow river, you still need to be able to plunge headlong. But if I could, the feeling is very pleasant. If you are in Abkhazia, of course, I recommend you to visit.

There is an ancient village of Kamany 17 km from the capital of Abkhazia, Sukhum. There are three shrines on this fertile land. The majestic church of St. John Chrysostom, where divine services are constantly held. The main shrine of the temple is the sarcophagus in which the saint rested. Not far away, in the mountains, is the place of the third finding of the head of John the Baptist, where the miraculous face of the prophet appeared on a rock. The third shrine is the temple of the martyr warrior Basilisk and the holy spring. Numerous miracles happen through prayers to the saint.

Friends vacationers and travel lovers. If you haven't visited this wonderful place yet, then you definitely need to come here. The quality of the road is not unimportant, even if you are traveling by car, then you can safely go here and not be afraid. The road to the monastery is covered with asphalt.

It's a beautiful place. A secluded, small temple that is easy to get around from the outside in a minute. You can sit on a bench nearby and think about your own or admire the beauty of the mountains and the ancient walls. We got from Sukhum by taxi, the cost there and back with a short wait of 1300 rubles.

Unfortunately, I was not very impressed. It's not a well-groomed place, in my opinion the monastery is being restored nearby, something is delayed, not very clean, something is lying there, a blue water barrel - they barely found an angle to take a picture. And when we were leaving, we met a dog, well, so ragged and dirty with sad eyes… There is no sense of sanctity and prayer in this place. View from the observation deck of the destroyed building. We do not recommend spending time visiting this place.
