Veli (Georgian: ველი) is a village at an altitude of 380 meters from sea level in the Gagra District of Abkhazia,^{[note 1]} Georgia.

Notes

1. Abkhazia's status is disputed. It considers itself to be an independent state, but this is recognised by only a few other countries. The Georgian government and most of the world's other states consider Abkhazia de jure a part of Georgia's territory. In Georgia's official subdivision it is an autonomous republic, whose government sits in exile in Tbilisi.
