| Vanis Kvabebi is an 8th century cave complex 4 km away from Vardzia. It is almost as beautiful as its neighbor and receives fewer visitors. The day Jack, my Fulbright friend from Ukraine, and I went, nobody was there but us and the monks. |

| Creepy altar |
 |
| Vanis is not for the old or faint of heart. |
 |
| There is a small church at the top of the complex. |

| Another creepy altar; this one is inside the church |
 |
| Odd graffiti |
 |
| Monk house |
 |
| We saw this church on the way to Khertvisi Fortress from Vanis. |
 |
| It was a beautiful day. |
