Greece still maintains many of its traditions and
customs, particularly in the villages where you will
be welcomed by the locals who have passed down their
traditions through the generations.

GreekPaths invites you to experience some of the
the rich and distinctive festivals and celebrations
that have survived since ancient times. Many of the
events are centred around the strong Greek Orthodox
religion and also related to the difficult times the
areas have suffered through war, slavery and discrimination
from other nations. |

Northern Greece is also home to those who have been
up-rooted from the nearby borders and who have found
acceptance of their cultures in Macedonia. |
|
| |
|
The two areas, Macedonia and Thrace have a distinct Balkan
atmosphere to them rather than an obvious Mediterranean feel.
This is particularly seen if you venture to Thrace towards
Turkey, which makes the area extremely interesting for those
who appreciate multi-cultural traditions. |
| |
GreekPaths can arrange for you to visit the areas at the
right time to witness the ancient dances, fire walking, concerts
and quite often the events revolve around a celebration of
feasting on good food and drinking quality wines from the
area! |
