One km southeast of the village of Khovle, on the middle course of the Zeskhevi stream, a right tributary of the Khekhmela, stands an aqueduct, or belghari; the local people call it "Kvakhida" (stone bridge). The belghari (30 m long, 1.1 m wide, 9 m high) is the main structure of the water-supply system of the palace of the princes Javakhishvili. It is built of flagstone on mortar. The central span is a pointed arch resting on piers, beneath which the stream flowed; the side spans are arches of irregular half-round form. Ceramic water pipes were laid along the top of the aqueduct, and at its head and foot settling jars (kvevri) are sunk into the earth. The belghari dates to the 17th–18th centuries (Bagrationi 1992: 51–53).
