Lessélidzé has several caravanserais, one of whom can hardly guess that they were. They were historically concentrated around the Sioni Cathedral. The principal is located on the right at the intersection of Lessélidzé and Sioni streets, opposite Irakli II Street. Téklés Karvasla, the caravanserai of Téklé, the former royal caravanserai, was destroyed by the Persians in 1795; It was rebuilt in a "euro-Moorish" style, orientalist and neoclassical. Left to the Soviet era and hard hit by the earthquake of 2002, it is now rehabilitated and is becoming a hotel.

There are two synagogues in Sourami, one of which is still working. The Jewish community of Sourami, despite emigration and assimilation, would still have about 300 souls. The two synagogues are located in the old town, concentrated around the fortress and church of the Mother of God; they're barely separate from normal residential houses, except you can see the star of David.

It has recently been restored; they are in fact resting places (theoretically for children) that can be very pleasantly used as a hotel.
