Greece is expected in the seclusion of Allah: Goddess Mousika.

We expected the rugged terrain, is located in the Parnassus a Stony Mountain, 12 kilometers away from the Del Fay, drive about 10 minutes. In this toGreeceBefore, I never heard the name. But actually it is a famous Greek winter ski resort, a ski season many Greeks will come here.

The rugged road

When we go to the late May, ski season has ended, but the summerTravelingThe crowd has not yet begun to town, so very few people, very quiet. In contrast, the modern Del Fei Appollo temple town lively a lot of noisy, also many. Shops, hotels, shops, restaurants are full of tourists in the figure, the street is full of the sound of car horns.

Quiet town

And Allah is expected, peaceful, some hotel restaurants or even shut down. Walking in the street, only to see the local residents, or sitting or standing, chatting together by twos and threes. When I walked into the shops to buy a refrigerator, shop owners are ebullience with simple English in the side with heavy accents hum about selling all kinds of other local specialty.

I have always liked from the building, shops, restaurants in these places to understand all aspects of geography, history, a culture, economic information, because this information will be revealed from life's basic necessities of life details.

The street shop

The light from the shop to sell things to see, here is indeed the mountain town, production of wood. A variety of wood products very much. This also no wonder, Ala Hova this name stems from the South Slavic languages, meaning refers to the cultivation of the walnut tree. Now whether still have the walnut tree, at least the olive tree is many.

The mountain is covered with trees, steep cliffs, bushes and grass large, let here become sheep paradise. So in addition to olives and olive oil, we expected to another specialty is the use of goats' milk do Formaella cheese. This cheese is only Ala Hova town to sell.
