The composing centre of the buildingis square and the dome rests on the eight angles. The architecturally ornamented cathedral with figure reliefs, its forms, proportions and colour harmonically merges into the environment. The Jvari Temple crowns the mountain at the confluence of the Mtkvari and Aragvi Rivers. It is an outstanding creation of medieval Georgian architecture, distinguished for the harmony of architectural forms and the strictness and clearness of the general composition.
