A lot of old dacha houses survived through times in a surprisingly good state. In order to move the village step by step further north old structures in the northern part of the village are reformed to host first relocates. With a little help from outside Ariha and a little bit of optimism the collective work is a lot of fun. As a lot of houses were not opened since they were abandoned the reform turns out to be a travel back in time.
With the processing vegetation and increasing sightings of larger animals in the southern parts of Ariha most inhabitants of the loosely inhabited southernmost parts of Ariha agreed to move into old structures further north inside the town.
