We were in the Church of St. George the Victorious. We got there after the Ilora Temple, Thank God for everything! Peace and Grace emanate from this holy place. A very nice girl met us and told us the history of this blessed Temple.Beria's mother was very devout and took all her six children to this temple. The Church has a Miraculous Icon of St. George the Victorious, Icons of the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ of Myrrh. There was a service, the atmosphere was very welcoming.We are very glad that we came to this Temple. We left the church and met the pigs. The nature is pristine.

A modest, peaceful temple with a long history. You will definitely be told the history of the church with the miraculous icon of St. George. Children can ring the bells at the entrance. I want to stay here longer.

The temple was accidentally entered on the way to the Olginsky waterfalls.
The temple is small, but somehow bright, not pretentious, quiet and clean. I want to stay in it longer.
There is an old cemetery nearby.

Cool place. It is located a little off the road. If you skip the pointer, it's fashionable not to find a church. It is located in the middle of an ancient cemetery. Quite a secluded place. A great girl Irina told a lot of interesting things not only about this church, but also about the church life of Abkhazia in general.

Lavrenty Beria and B. Okudzhava attended the church. The old temple, which has been prayed for centuries. I recommend it for believers to visit!

A very quiet and little-visited place. A very friendly attendant told about the temple, its history, an abandoned old cemetery nearby, which is being put in order and a dilapidated school where Beria studied

It's a very interesting place. Firstly, the village of Merheul is the birthplace of Lavrenty Pavlovich Beria, although many buildings are abandoned or destroyed. Secondly, according to the legend, this is the place where St. George struck the serpent. The temple itself is very bright, I sincerely recommend going there

Such a place, dilapidated , ancient, the abbot is strict, can easily scold if you do something wrong, and then explain. if you're eating by, of course you have to go in.

A truly fascinating place, steeped in antiquity...You can't see this temple from the road. It is surrounded by greenery. The church turned out to be operational, to our surprise)) Moreover, it was open, although it was evening. She was guarded by a local resident. It is a pity that neither his name nor the year of the temple's construction were found out. The graves of all the priests of this parish are on the territory...

The temple is closed. Maybe at the restoration- there is no announcement. But the place is cool - quiet, peaceful. They did not get inside the temple...

An ancient temple, you can go in and put candles on. There's a strange monk there. But you can not take his words very seriously.
