Podhale in Poland has Chochołów (UNESCO), Slovakia has Vlkolínec (UNESCO). It is a unique example of an untouched by the modern architecture, traditional village. This village is more than 600 years old, it is situated in an unbelievably isolated place, high above Revúca River valley. The communication with Ružomberok was through a narrow path - today a cycleway northern from the village. the houses are between 100 and 200 years old, all made of wood with traditional wooden roofs, traditionally painted in white, yellow or blue. 45 houses are protected plus a log two-storey belfry from 1770 on a stone stand and a log well from 1860. There is a Baroque-Classicist Roman-Catholic church from the 19th century. What is the key factor to places like this stay untouched, you might ask? Poverty. The village inhabitants’ main occupations were agriculture, shepherding and forestry, they couldn’t afford anything better than a wooden house, a tiny field behind it. Nowadays Vlkolínec’ main income is from tourism. You can visit one of the houses to see how did the people live here 100 years ago (2,00 €).
