Perdiki

Perdiki (Greek: Περδίκη) is a small village in the northeastern corner of the Greek island of Icaria. Perched up in the mountains, it houses fewer than 200 residents[1] in small houses tucked into the forests. Perdiki is one of the larger villages on Icaria, although its population is spread throughout a plateau.

On the western side of the village, the church of Agia Matrona (meaning: Saint Matrona) stands watch over the village's cemetery, which has been used for hundreds of years.
