Prines
Prines is built at 200 meters above sea level and inside a green landscape with walnut and maple trees, oaks and olives. Prines with about 900 residents, preserve elements of the Venetian and the Ottoman past, with courtyards, houses with arches, stone stairs and domes.
Among the sights of the village, apart from the Venetian buildings, the visitor will see the church of St. Nicholas, the patron of the village, next to the old stone school. The church is of the 10th-11th century with the old portable miraculous icon of the Saint who performed many miracles during the Turkish occupation.
