A spectacular tradition that Greeks have adopted for Easter is sending glowing hot-air balloons into the night sky in celebration of Easter celebrating “Christos Anesti” (Christ Resurrected).
Greek Orthodox Easter, or Pascha, is the most important religious feast of the year, with customs and traditions that have been part of Christianity for two thousand years, making the feast a colorful one after the Lenten mourning for the Passion of Christ.
