Easter customs in Leonidio, Arcadia – by Mariza

“Lanterns and Balloons”

Leonidio in Arcadia, the picturesque town covered by Mount Parnon, every Easter and at Resurrection presents us with the most beautiful images.

The feeling of a village and the large square that is flooded with people and, of course, the famous lanterns and hot air balloons is an experience that we all deserve to experience.

Every year the permanent residents of Leonidio make hundreds of colored lanterns which they leave in the sky on the night of the Resurrection and create a fairy-tale spectacle.

The right destination for Easter in all of Greece!
