As a history teacher walking through this village (no that's not me in the picture, nor the one below)I could really get a sense of what a medieval village was like, particularly with the sheep and goats wandering through the narrow, twisting streets
.
There were many children in the village. Maybe there appeared more because at the times we were visiting the parents were away earning a living in the town or farming.
These are some of the buildings people live in. They seem to be made from whatever material was available at the time. This included corrugated iron, branches, mud brick and hessian.
There is a school here. It is not very large. They hold a district soccer tournament here. But the ground is so rough. You can see evidence of volunteers being here years ago with fading murals and slogans on walls.
There is also another monastery within the village. It is reasonably large, with a colourful temple inside.
