Panigiri Κοιμήσεως Θεοτόκου, Olympos

In the remote clifftop village of Olympos on Karpathos, the Dormition of the Virgin is marked by the solemn Kato Horos, a slow reverential dance danced first by men then by women in magnificent embroidered heirloom costumes that are among the most spectacular surviving traditional dress in Greece.
