How beautiful and peaceful it is here. There are different flowers growing on the territory, although not many, but lilacs are very beautiful ... cows graze around and there are a lot of large daisies ... just glades…
From the center of Tskhinvali to the monastery by car - 15 minutes maximum. The road is unpaved, but smooth. We arrived at Kia Rio without any problems.
It's a stunningly beautiful place. So strong and salty. You need to go with a guide who will tell you the history of this temple. About two brothers and a carved drawing.
Some incredibly magical place! Perhaps the evening visit was influenced by the antiquity of the church (it seems to be the 13th century), but I did not want to leave there. I also managed to hit the bell (allowed)
