LAPPEI (Municipality) RETHYMNO
The shepherds celebrate the "Koura" in the end of the spring.
In St. George feast day they take their sheep to the church to be blessed and
they milk them, giving the milk to all those who are present. After the harvest
time there is "kazanemata", which is a process to make the raki.
All religious festivities are full of vigor and life with the day
of Virgin Mary (8th September) in Miriokefala
to stand as one of the most important, which is followed by a big pilgrimage.
All these celebrations offer to the visitors perfect chances for feasts and fun.
