The Orthodox world today celebrates the Feast Day of Great Martyr St. George, one of the most prominent commemorations in the ecclesiastical calendar.
One of the more unique traditions in Greece related to the specific Feast Day was again celebrated in the village of Lefkakia, in the Nafplio municipality of southeast Greece, where an icon of the Saint was transported from the St. George Cathedral and paraded around the village by riders. Photos are posted today on the Orthodoxia news agency.
