The village is known for its natural environment and it is built in a dense oak forest.
The view from the village includes Mount Giona which is Greece's 5th tallest and other mountain ranges.
World War II and the Civil War that ensued (1945-1949) created the adverse economic conditions that led to a dramatic demographic decline that occurred in the village in the second half of the 20th century.
Many families moved to Athens, Erateini and in urban centers in the United States of America.
