Kvirike Mosque:

The Kvirike mosque is located in the center of a village by the same name. It was built sometime between 1860-1866 (reports vary) by a Laz master from Arhavi. The mosque is included on the list of Georgian cultural monuments. It is a wooden building erected over a stone foundation. The poles, rails and banisters are richly ornamented. The building is surrounded with an open balcony on the ground floor. The Kvirike Mosque is an excellent example of the architectural diversity of Ajarian architecture.
