Ispani Wonders - Sphagnum Dome
Ispani Wonders - Sphagnum Dome - The most pristine live sphagnum (commonly known as peat moss) peatland of the world lies less than 300 m from the coast in Ajara. The Sphagnum Dome is a seeming lake with a 25-45 cm layer of sphagnum that is never entirely submerged in water. Together with the water the peat moss creates a completely smooth dome without any hillocks. The dome rises 4-5 m over its surroundings.
The Ispanipeatland is an unexhausted source of oxygen and plays a great part in the cycle of carbon production. At the same time, it plays a significant role in regulating the regional and local climates. The Ispanipeatland protects Kobuleti from floods. Sphagnum moss absorbs water in a way similar to a cloud as it can contain much more water than its form would indicate. In 1964, while excavating a drainage canal, an ancient settlement dating back to fourth and third centuries BCE was discovered. Humans are supposed to have settledin the areabetween five and six thousand years ago.

Khino Monastery Complex (middle ages)
The Khino Complex unites a lot of boulders today. But in the past those boulders had different names. Some of them were a fence, a church, an economy-function building.
The Khino Church after John the Baptist is the most remarkable by its architectural planning from Khino buildings. Unfortunately there is nothing left except rare walls and the plant itself. Present walls are about 3 meters and have so equal height as if some enormous superhero cut them by one wag with his enormous sword.
Certainly, there was a bishop
faculty in this place in the past. Other suppositions to be expressed
are waiting for people who haven't seen the Khino yet.
