Makrinitsa village view XI, a photo from Magnisia, Thessaly

Photographer's Note

Makrinitsa village view XIMakrinitsa (Greek: Μακρινίτσα), nicknamed "balcony of Mt. Pelion," is a village and a former community in Magnesia, Thessaly, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Volos, of which it is a municipal unit.
The municipal unit has an area of 59.903 km2. It is situated in the northwestern part of the Pelion mountains, 6 km northeast of Volos. One of the most characteristic traditional settlements, full of mansions and houses that look like hanging ornaments on the green mountain side. One of the traditional coffee houses is decorated with a fresco by the famous Greek painter Theofilos.
The picturesque cobbled paths of Makrinitsa are scattered with traditional water fountains. Makrinitsa is a popular tourist destination, especially during the winter.

The village is the home of the Museum of Folk Art and History of Pelion, housed in the historic Topali Mansion, with over 1,500 objects related to the folk culture and everyday life of the region.

Hello Costantino,
It's a nicely composed vertical photo giving us a glimpse of a souvenir shop, a staircase and a fine wall, and at the top the characteristic buildings. It's like a cut through the village with many views found in the same photo.
Kind regards,
Gert
