Church of St. George

One of several rock-hewn churches in the city in a unique underground locale reached by tunnel. Visitor tips: • Wear comfortable, sturdy shoes as the terrain around the churches can be uneven and involve steps. • Consider hiring a local guide at the site; their insights into the history, symbolism, and construction of the church greatly enhance the visit. • The best time to visit is early morning or late afternoon to experience the serene atmosphere and avoid the midday heat and larger crowds.
