Samtavisi, Ateni, Uplistsikhe-Georgia

Samtavisi-is an eleventh-century Georgian Orthodox Cathedral in eastern Georgia, in the region of Shida Kartli. The cathedral is now one of the centers of the Eparchy of Samtavisi and Gori of the Georgian Orthodox Church. According to a Georgian tradition, the first monastery on this place was founded by the Assyrian missionary Isidore in 572 and later rebuilt in the 10th century. Neither of these buildings has survived however.
Ateni Sioni- is an early 7th-century Georgian Orthodox church in the village of Ateni. It stands in a setting of the Tana River valley known not only for its historical monuments but also for its picturesque landscapes and wine. The name "Sioni" derives from Mount Zion at Jerusalem. The church is not dated but is very similar to the Jvari Monastery at Mtskheta, which is generally held to have preceded it.
Uplistsikhe Complex- is an ancient rock-hewn town in eastern Georgia, some 10 kilometers east of the town of Gori, Shida Kartli. Built on a high rocky left bank of the Mtkvari River, it contains various structures dating from the Early Iron Age to the Late Middle Age, and is notable for the unique combination of various styles of rock-cut cultures from Anatolia and Iran, as well as the co-existence of pagan and Christian architecture.
