A short drive from Gori is the ancient church of Atenis Sioni. Unfortunately under construction when I visited, the inside of this church is truly breathtaking.
After walking through the gate, I found myself in an orchard of grapes. Again, the branches were guided over wooden sticks forming a roof through which it was still possible to look around. Through the vines, I saw the contours of Atenis Sioni in the background. I noted immediately that the church was under reconstruction, and saw workers walking up and down with building materials. I had a look at the church from the outside, discovering small stone reliefs in its walls. Like Jvari Church in Mtskheta of which it is a true copy, Atenis Sioni has a great setting. It is not built on top of a hill, but rather surrounded by green hills.
