Among them is one of the natural monuments, rocky massif- Sairme Pillars. One of the main landmarks of Tsageri municipality. Pillars were formed as a result of natural processes during thousands of years. 

The desert of Sairme pillars is located between village Alpana and Chrelobo, near the village Sairme. On the right bank of the river Rioni, from the mountain pass, where the road folds between the uphill and downhill, one can see Sairme Pillars.
