Shatili Fortress Village
Nestled near the Chechen border in the deep gorge of the Arghuni River, Shatili is a breathtaking fortress-village composed of interconnected stone towers that form a single defensive wall against mountain invaders. Steeped in centuries of border warfare, blood feuds, and plague tragedies like nearby Anatori, Shatili is celebrated for its mysterious atmosphere and lingering ghost stories. This historic site remains one of the most compelling and atmospheric dark tourism destinations in Georgia.
