Traditions and customs in Greece

Traditions and customs in Greece: Many traditions and customs in Greece originate from the Greek Orthodox religion. Traditions and customs are also a guide to everyday life in Crete. In the mountains of Crete, people still live according to the tradition. The traditions and customs of the Greek islands differ and therefore it is nice to meet the locals of Crete. We like to explain to you how people live on the Greek island of Crete and show you some mountain villages where you can learn more about the culture. Crete is a popular holiday destination, but is much more than just sun, sea and good food.
