Rodaria

Rodaria

It is a special custom,  revived on the first Sunday after Easter, during the big feast of Panagia Lakkotiani, in Isternia. Rodaria takes place after the end of the Divine Liturgy celebrated in Panaghia, the church which is located just outside the village. According to the custom, all pilgrims have lunch together at a common table and exchange a small bouquet of flowers, accompanied by a card with Resurrection wishes.

Rodaria reminds the ancient “anthestiria”, the great three-day celebration of the flowers, which took place in Athens in honor of Dionysus, during the month “Anthesterion”.
