[:en]This time I was going to tell Guruli stories, accompanied by Guruli wine, vodka and tea, but I changed my mind.

I changed my mind, because an extraordinary person responded to the “previous” blog, liked my “work” and asked me if it would be good if I would tell about Chokhatauri – Jaji lake strip, as I say, to numerous readers.

There are many, well, what can I tell you, but I will say a few words about the Chokhatauri-Jaj lake strip, of course, in my own way.

I should start with the jackals’ mill in order and order, but before I talk about the jackals’ mill, I will say a word or two about one of the most important representatives of the jackals.

Why?! Why and in Ozurgeti, precisely because I was born on the land and water of the jackals fifty-seven years ago, and despite so many years of separation, I still consider myself there.

He was an amazing man, I couldn’t remember his name, that jackal. It turns out that the land was leased. Do you understand that the Gurus used to sow only corn and rice on the leased lands. There was a tax on every cent, of course, in kind. Autumn would come, Mr. Jackeli would visit the leased lands, evaluate the harvest, and now the main thing begins! “Is there as much harvest as usual this year?” – the payment does not change! Is there a “mix” crop? – Tax still does not change. “Isn’t there a good harvest?” – the tax is reduced in proportion to the harvest!

Isn’t this jackal an amazing man?! It is, and today I will also honor it by hearing the name and remembering it with a glass of red wine this evening!

I told the story this evening, now it’s time to look at the mill-reading mill, more precisely in the mill-reading room.

The mill-reading mill is located in the village of Dablatsikhe and belongs to the family of jackals, “The flour is here, the book is here…” says Giorgi Kekelidze, the general director of the National Library, adding: “The plague is there, of course” and I naturally agree with pleasure.

I don’t know about you, here is me personally, I not only glanced at one or two books, touched them with my hand, flipped through them and added my not-so-pleasant voice to the magical sound of the mill.

It would be good if there is something for Niko Mar in the mill-reading room,

Niko Mari, what’s up?!

Not in the middle, but in the head!

We will move to Niko Mari’s House-Museum!

Don’t think it’s far, it’s right there, just a little away. The house-museum is a memorial museum and it preserves the manuscripts, memorial items and works of the Georgian scientist Niko Mari (1864-1934).

The house-museum was opened in 1999 in connection with the 135th anniversary of Niko Mari’s birth and 65th anniversary of his death, and was added to the tourist map of Chokhatauri and the whole of Guria!

It’s time to visit the Sharashidze wine cellar on the tourist map of Guria… by the way, it’s not just a wine cellar, it’s also a hotel and you can taste locally produced honey.

Let’s not forget that the host’s name is Mr. Temur, and we recently visited the village of Bukissikhe. You know that a castle is a castle, a book, a wind instrument, Roma is not that, but it is the same ska, I will just remind you.

Now let’s rest for a while, then you and I will visit Guria Lake and Tamar Castle.[:]
