Alandza (Toloshi) is an 8th–9th-century Georgian Orthodox single-nave hall church in Meskheti, on the right side of the Tashlakashi River (Aspindza municipality), 1.5 km from the village of Toloshi. Against Alandza's north wall survives the remnant of a short rectangular annex. On the north and south walls of the nave is one pilaster each, crowned with capitals, which once carried a horseshoe-shaped transverse arch. The walls are built of roughly dressed basalt, while the corners of the facades and of the doors and windows are of cleanly dressed sandstone. The facades are plain; only the south facade bears occasional decorative elements.
