In the VI—VIII centuries, the Church of the Intercession of the Mother of God was built here, subsequently consecrated in the name of St. Nicholas. Hypatia of Gagra, which is one of the most ancient Christian churches in the world, and it has been well preserved to this day
An interesting church, if you are staying in Gagra, be sure to go. If you choose, I will give preference to the New Athos Monastery and the Mokva temple.
A wonderful place! The current temple is very old. Impressive! Special thanks to the lovely girl in the church shop. It's small, but it doesn't spoil the impression. Surprisingly, wishes really begin to come true there! I want to come back here
A really ancient temple. The territory is well maintained. In front of the temple in the shopping stalls, I recommend shopping. Everything is not expensive. Cheaper than in other places.
It's a beautiful place. A functioning temple with a well-maintained territory. It is very pleasant to be there even if you are not interested in religion.
A holy, prayed-for place, some wonderful air in the temple, I couldn't breathe enough! You can't take pictures inside, and to be honest, it's not up to that.
An Orthodox Church, operating. There are divine services. The serving priest is Father Athanasius. For those who care about the presence of Worship, then you are definitely here.
An ancient, functioning temple. The splendor of icons and gilded frames is set off by ascetic walls. There is not enough space, but everything is conveniently arranged. There are air conditioners inside. Be sure to go to the service - wonderful singers!
There is a very gracious atmosphere during the divine services. Reading and singing in the Abkhaz and Russian languages make us feel that we are one for God. The sermons of the priests are heartfelt and reach the mind and heart.

great! It is located on the territory of the Abaata fortress, which is given over to the hotel of the same name.
