                <description><![CDATA[A Greek Ghost town (or village), Old Perithia was built in Byzantine times, and is hidden in the hills of Corfu.<br><br>This mountain village was once the bustling home to 1,500 people, but today about six people live here, and the rest of the village is a tangle of crumbling stone walls and deserted squares. <br><br>An interesting insight into how tourism has affected the island - as the original villagers fled to the coastal resorts for jobs, leaving their olive groves behind. <br><br>We wandered around for a few hours in amazement at all the empty houses, and then cooled off in one of the remaining tavernas. <br><br>An eerie afternoon, but a refreshing change from our busy resort!]]></description>
