History preserved

It is pretty incredible to see pieces of history right there in front of you just left. Abandon buildings, homes, and churches that give you an insight about who lived here before. In Alikianos and other neighboring villages you can see remnants of ottomans, venetian's, feudal lords homes. To see so much history in one place is so incredible and to know that we get to witness it before it is either forgotten to eventually taken down. We get to see arches that remain which is incredible. The eeriness of what seems like these people just picked up and left all of this behind is so intriguing and having people now live next to such historic sites is very cool to see how the community exists with the past as well.
