If you want to take a taste of the authentic, traditional Santorini, today is your chance!
So
tonight, in
the church of St. Aristides,
on the way to Exo Gialos vespers will take place at 19.00,
to honour the Saint who celebrates on Saturday. Then, at 21.00, free fava and wine will
be offered, while the Pontic Association of Santorini “Akrites”
as well as the dance group "Rodo"
from Rodopoli, Athens
will present traditional dances. The Pontic Association presents itself with
traditional outfits, which are replicas of the authentic ones that have
originally come from the region of Pontos (today Black Sea) and performs impressive
dances as they were practiced by the 1st generation refugees.
On Saturday morning, at 07.30, the mass will be celebrated and
procession of the icon will follow,
honoured by the presence of the local Bishop,
Epiphanios. At 10.30,
