Following the rising road that leads to the village, it is 28 km away
from Argos.
The few locals that still live in the village deal mostly with cultivation
- olive trees, produce and grains - and cattle raising. They try to keep unquenchable
their faith to historical continuity. Andritsa contains two churches; the church
of St. Vlassis at the top of a hill and the Byzantine chapel of St. Demetrios.
Andritsa is a village where excavations have brought into light a
number of relics that belonged to the ancient and medieval times. Archeologists
have found funeral gifts and coins, as well as evidence of ancient water tank.
Finally, from Andritsa visitors may scan the Turkish road of Agogiostrata
at the southern side of Ktenias
that once led to the village of
Achladokampos.
