Natlismtsemeli monastery, Orthodox monastery in Kakheti region, Georgia
The Natlismtsemeli monastery features numerous cave temples and a central church with an additional smaller church in the southern section.
Following its establishment by Luciane in the 7th century, the monastery underwent modifications during the 12th century, incorporating new architectural elements.
The monastery walls display frescoes from the 18th century, including portraits of King Tamar alongside traditional religious imagery and decorative elements.
