One of Kalopanayiotis main attractions is the large number of houses built in the old mountain village traditional style.
Many of the old houses are built in this manner and the department of Antiquity has declared them “monuments” or “properties for preservation”.
These houses are being gradually restored in co-operation with the antiquities department and converted into tourist accommodation units. The European Union has been very instrumental in facilitating finances for these projects.
