Or browse through the "agora" (marketplace) as if you were strolling through the coble stone streets of the villages of our ancestors while catching a live performance of our talented dancers who carry on the traditions of many years ago. Take a tour of our church, that is deep in history in itself . These are the traditions of our Greek life as are the "panigiri" (festival).
