Anton Sabucha has spent his entire life here.

Before all this UNESCO frenzy began, life here was much quieter.

People had their own rhythm of life.

They weren't constantly interrupted by tourists, and when a photographer, an artist, or a writer came here, they came with humility and behaved respectfully.

They weren't pushy or rude.

Today, only 17 remain year-round.

For the average tourist, they're just wooden houses.

For us, they're people.
