Christmas in Greece is a festive season marked by traditions, unique to the country's cultural and religious heritage. Greek families celebrate with a blend of ancient customs and Christian traditions. The Christmas Eve dinner, known as the "Vespera," includes dishes like roast pork and seafood. Caroling is a popular activity, and children visit homes singing "kalanda" for treats. Churches are beautifully decorated, and the midnight mass on Christmas Eve is an important event. The festive season lasts until Epiphany, continuing the celebration of Greek culture and spirituality.
