What travelers say:

The church we visited was named Samtavro Main Church, also known as the Woman's Monastery of San Nino. It may seem more appropriate to us, as all the nuns were seen here. San Nino, who guided Georgia to convert to the Orthodox Church, lived here, so there is a San Nino chapel on the east side of the churchyard. Almost all female visitors who come in to visit or worship will check in there, and the incense is very strong. It is said that the location of the hut is the place where San Nino worshiped, no wonder it was so sacred. There was the nun's clothes and the coffin of the king and queen who was guided to establish the Orthodox Church as the state religion. This is a very sacred place in Georgia, but unfortunately we see not many tourists here. There are also many nuns' cemeteries in the churchyard, and the owners of these cemeteries may have told different stories in the historical era. There is a small museum behind the yard, walk in to see, mainly pictures and text introduction. Because of the language barrier, I don't know that the leader of the monastery is displayed.
