The Abandoned Village
The last inhabitants of Chorio left the area in 1970. The first building you can see from the old path is the church of Agioi Anargyroi, surrounded by olive trees. Next is the Church of the Savior and the old school, which is in better condition. The small monasteries of Agia Triada, Agios Konstantinos, and the vaulted church of Panagia Choriani, with its massive cypress tree, are preserved throughout Chorio. These shrines remain undeniable witnesses of the flourishing the settlement once knew. It is worth noting the isodomic walls found in various ruined houses, the scattered architectural parts in the cemetery, the sarcophagi, and the Doric capital at Agios Konstantinos. Two thrones carved into the rock with the inscription “DIOS EKATIS” were found a little further above the village, which you definitely should visit.
