A mellow ride with some decent vertical, leading to the UNESCO village known for its towers. A portion of it has been preserved. I'm staying in one of the old towers. The road still has some rough spots but it won't be long until all of it is completely built up. It still has a lot of character. These are rough mountains, it rains a lot and it's a long winter. There are still a few older people in some of the smaller villages at the ends of the valleys who stay year around. The government has to come in with helicopters to provide them with food when they get snowed in.
There is a small museum showing how life was for centuries before it got modernized.Read more
