The President of Georgia laid a cornerstone at the construction of a new hotel complex at the Shaori Lake territory in Racha. Mikheil Saakashvili symbolically placed a capsule in the basement and spoke about prospects of developing the region.

Tourist infrastructure will be created at the Shaori Lake including a hotel, boat docks, walking and bicycle lanes as well as horse riding tours and a well accommodated beach.

The complex will be completed by the end of 2013.
