    History

    The history of Rasol is intertwined with the cultivation of cannabis and its remote location, which has allowed it to maintain a distinct culture and traditions for centuries. The village has largely remained isolated from the outside world due to its difficult access, preserving its unique way of life. Legend says that the villagers are descendants of Alexander the Great's army, but there is no concrete evidence to support this claim. The village has its own local governance system and follows its own set of rules and customs. The villagers have traditionally relied on agriculture and animal husbandry, with cannabis cultivation becoming a significant source of income in recent times. The village has only recently opened up to tourism, and its future will depend on how it balances tradition with the demands of the modern world.
