PANAGIA

One of the mountain villages which has the good fortune to be situated on the main road, and has therefore managed to remain lively and retain its population. Named Anastasion in Byzantine times, the village huddles around its church which was built using ancient stones. Plenty of running water, plane and walnut trees, and eleven sanctuaries in a village that has held on to its character and history in spite of its economic development. This is largely due to its inhabitants’ dedication to the traditions and customs of the village. A large traditional carnival is held here every year at the start of Orthodox Lend
