Easter in Cyprus

LEGO Easter Bunny 40005
Easter without question is the greatest Greek Orthodox religious feast, which is celebrated throughout the Island of Cyprus with great solemnity.

Evening services usually take place during the entire Holy Week.
Traditionally, after the morning mass on Holy Thursday, housewives paint eggs in red.

On Good Friday a procession of decorated Sepulchres takes place in all parishes on the Island at around 20:30.  At midnight on Good Saturday an open air mass will take
place at every church. 

On Easter, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday traditional games are organised in many villages.

Here’s wishing you all great Easter
