Menetes.

  Built as an eagle nest, in the rocks Menetes enjoy the view to the bight
of "Vrondis", where Pigadia are located.

“Tradition wants the rock where Menetes is built to be the Titan Menoitios him self, son of Iapetos who Jupiter through a thunder
and turned him into rock".

  The medieval origin of the village, has left heritage narrow white streets, traditional houses, unique architecture, small tradirional taverns
and traditional cafes.

  The houses, in pure white, go down the hill side and stop in the public street. Some of these houses pass the street on the other side towards
the flat side of the rock, up to the historical and miraculous church
of Virgin Mary that is placed on the top.

In the village survives a rich tradition of popular Karpathian instrumentalists.
