Attractions of Garazo:
Garazo is divided into two districts, the modern district and the old traditional district, that makes you feel like you have just travelled back in time, in the Venetian era and the Ottoman domination. In this district, there are the Turkish prisons and the old aqueduct, dating back to 1915.
