Information: Vardzia (Georgian: ვარძია) is a spectacular cave monastery site in southern Georgia, dug out of the Erusheti Mountain on the left bank of the Mtkvari River in Samtskhe-Javakheti region. It was a monumental undertaking, ultimately resulting in a colossal rock-cut monastery with 13 levels and 6,000 dwelling places for monks and those who were fleeing any invaders.
