His story is sad. The village Akarkara was part of the city Tkuarchal (former Tkvarcheli) is a major industrial and mining town. After the war, worked there many prisoners of German builders and architects who rebuilt the fast-paced village. Akarkara very soon became a luxury district — beautiful architecture, picturesque location and the nearby healing springs of the Tkvarcheli mineral water and sulphur springs.

However, in the early 1990s, the life of the village seems to have turned the Georgian-Abkhaz conflict. The city of Tkuarchal was almost in the center of the fighting, but because locals had to urgently leave their homes. As in the case of Chernobyl, many were convinced that he would soon return home and leave his stuff in there. But the war dragged on, Akarkara again peace came, back here no one wanted.

Now a Ghost town looks very sad and abandoned and dilapidated houses in which there are trees and grass left to dry on the balcony thing, abandoned and rusted cars, books, toys and personal belongings in the apartments, covered with a thick layer of dust. On the streets of Akarkara is free to roam homeless cats, dogs, pigs and even horses with cows.

It should be noted that in the village there is no water supply, electricity and roads miraculously survived. Despite the fact that Akarkara abandoned and desolate, now it is home to about 50 people who are willing to communicate with many tourists.
