Chronology
The landscape has been occupied from the Prehistory to nowadays. The landscape hasn't got many changes, maybe the change of some elements or the came from new plants, like eucalipts.

Changes and permanences over time
One of the most radical changes was the lost of the castro. Now you can see the remains.

Another change is the pass from the work in the land to the work in somewhere else.
And, of course the change from traditional architecture to modern architecture.

Simmilarities and differences
We think:
This village is like other galician old villages, with old people, farmers, a rural enviroment, etc.

But it´s a great valley with three villages, one route, rivers and also young people! You can´t find this every day! It´s a incredible valley in a very strategic place. You have mountain and a river (Tambre, at 2km).

Elements detracting from your landscape
We don´t like the presence of the eucalyptus in the landscape, we prefer native plants, like oaks or browns.
We also hate so much trash in some parts of our landscape. You can find mattresses and even sofas!
The last damage was a fire in the peak. They we´re celebrating Saint Marcos´s day with artificial fires. The place was very dry and it ignited very easly.

Recommendations for environment sustainability
Our Landscape is beautiful and rural. We think we can´t droop cans or trubish in the mountain or plan-ting eucaliphts.

We have done an expedition to quit (hiedras) and we think it´s also a good way from preserve the lands-cape.

Recommendations for social sustainability
This is a peacefull place without any social problem.
