Panoramic Benitses Photo from 1981

This page belongs to Benitses of 1981 .

It shows the entire area of Benitses almost from Koutsomaroula bay up to Laopetra, seems to been pulled from the base of the then old pier in the harbor.

So thanks to Mr. Alan Walker who took it and kept it on traditional paper in a long frame it can be preserved forever, it is the old memory of a village a little different and certainly more picturesque and beautiful.
The photo was given by Mr. Alan Walker to Argo pool restaurant bar, then to Takis Kontos of Cultural Association in May 2013, Takis brought us the frame yesterday and today is already ready for all of you to see.

A big Thanks to Cultural association and Takis especially for their trust, this photo belongs to local residents, and the watermark is there only for protection reasons as always, also includes both websites.
We have the photograph at a much higher resolution and available to everyone.

Below there is a similar picture from May 2012, but from another angle, from the exact spot where the top of the old pier was and therefore the village seems further away …
But anyone can send some conclusions, we do not express any opinion but simply only present and leave the conclusions for you.
