Camardi is not only a town quiet, nice and a clean athmosphere but also a place where many holy tales were told to new generations by the old. The tales of Camardi starts with some angels, some creatures living in houses like "Harry Potter"type and the relationship of the old people with those creatures. Today the people around the age 80 know those tales and they all claim they lived those holy things with those creatures.

Camardi has main two families with their own surnames, today the river "Ecemis" comes from the name of a family who is dominant in the town and the other family is "Erdem" family most of whose members are in large cities working in health industry.

Unfortunately the speed of urbanization, tales are not known so much today, and new generations are living and working in large cities instead of staying in Camardi. Because of such reasons the town is getting smaller and smaller and what it seems is that Camardi is going to be a nice place for the people in order to come in summer time in order to enjoy the landscape.
