Vlochos

A series of beautiful, simple houses with roofs that look like those we see in children's drawings. Open spaces, sun, signs of the coming spring in most fields - some of which still look like small stagnant lakes. Nothing is missing from the landscape except the human presence.

Residents from the village of Vlochos, one of the dozens in central Greece that were submerged during two major rainstorms last September, are asking municipal authorities to find new space for the construction of houses in order to relocate.

The Palamas Agricultural Association and other agricultural associations of the Karditsa area in Thessaly organized a demonstration with tractors on Sunday at noon.
