One of the things that surprised me while we were hiking up the other side of the valley was to walk though what the locals call the "bee village". Being a urban bee keeper I just had to stop and take some picture. The bee keeper went up and whacked at his hive. I can only guessing so the bees would be a little more active for me. They harvest the honey twice a year once in October (I had just missed it) and again in January. They get about 2 liters of honey. I'm not sure if they use the beeswax since that part of the translation wasn't understood by the guide that was with me.
