Honestly, What This Market Is
The cathedral draws a niche audience interested in medieval Georgian art, but this doesn't create large-scale tourist traffic. The town's core economy is agricultural, in the shadow of larger neighboring Zugdidi.
Consider Tsalenjikha as a cultural point of interest rather than a standalone investment destination — Zugdidi makes more sense for that.
