We have seen pictures online and read about this place. And finally we got here. We had a rental car from Kutaisi and drove here ourselves. Not an easy ride with a bad car but a very interesting drive. The way ‘down’ from the pillal was needing to speed up on the car to get over the small hill, exciting, not for novice drivers. We were all alone, as out of tourist season. We know it is “just” a small building on a pillar but still felt very special coming here. It took us a good 4h, drive back and forth and the visit. At the foot of the pillar is a small chapel where we lit candles for our recent past family members. The lighter is in the drawer by the altar... Candle in the small and very friendly shop. It was just (early Jan) under renovation and seems they are making a few more buildings, the existing buildings are old and pretty so guess it will be a bit more touristic later on.
